PreBrowser is a web browsing application for jailbroken iPhone and iPod touch which has been inspired by the web browser in Palm Pre. PreBrowser runs in full screen with tabs which gives it a look and feel from Palm Pre. The main UI of the app is plain and simple, with only one single “menu” button to go on the top left. Clicking on “view tabs” presents a beautiful cover flow like mode for all the opened tabs in the browser.
New Year is a great occasion to celebrate; probably the only event which is celebrated all over the world by everyone regardless of their nationality, language and religion. On this very special occasion, an iPhone developer has come up with an iPhone and iPod touch app to exchange contact information by giving a toast to the one with whom you are exchanging information. The toast can then be shared on the facebook wall for all your family and friends to see.
One thing which is missing big-time from the iPhone is the ability to copy/save contacts to and from the SIM card. But again as they say: ‘on the iPhone, there is an app for just about anything’. And so finally, there is one to take care of this problem as well for the jailbroken iPhones. In the latest version of Giovanni Chiappini’s SIManager, there is now an option with which we can copy all contacts from iPhone to the SIM card and vice versa.
