If you're a fan of third party iOS web browsers and are tired of manually opening links to avoid using Safari, then you're in luck. Now there is a free jailbreak tweak that allows you to change the default web browser in iOS.
Last month we brought you a proposed new way for Apple to handle notifications and popups inside iOS. Designed by Shawn Hickman, the system used the Spotlight page to list notifications ready for taking action on. We liked it, and we hoped Apple would use it when revamping notifications in iOS 5. But now there's a new kid on the block - and it's lovely.
We told you recently about a collection of photos sent to MacRumors of what the tipster claimed was a 128GB 5th generation iPod touch. And now another site has more photos.

One thing about iOS apps is they never stop surprising us. People just keep on putting together apps that we weren't expecting and even some apps that just boggle our (rather impressive) minds. Meal Snap is one of those apps, and it's impressive stuff.
Back when iOS 4.3 was in its beta days, all the fuss was about its fancy new multitouch gestures for switching between apps as well as returning to the home screen on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
PatentlyApple has been watching Apple closely for the patents that folks at Cupertino are filing at USPTO. The recent inclusion assigned to Apple is one of its kind piece of technology. The new revived bezel offers a secondary display built around printed segmented electroluminescence technology for various controls for work and play.
While no much easier than the 30 or 40 step processes of yesteryear, jailbreaking is still a little daunting for the layman. With so many different tools, for different operating systems and based on different versions of iOS, the jailbreak scene can be a veritable minefield for people who aren't particularly tech-savvy.
