Two of the biggest non-Apple App Stores - Cydia and Rock.app - with one common goal: to provide users with the best apps for jailbroken iPhones, iPads and iPod touches have decided to merge for the best interest of the community.
GTA: Chinatown Wars is a top-down open-world game for the Nintendo DS and PSP. Even though it really didn’t sell too many copies, it received thoroughly outstanding ratings from all video game reviewers (getting a 9.5/10 from GameSpot is no easy feat).
Finally! After a long wait, YourTube app has been updated to version 2.0, bringing full iOS 4.x support for jailbroken iOS devices including the support for iPhone 4 Retina Display and iPad.

When we talk about touchscreen-only Tablets, the first device that pops up in mind is the iPad. It is an awesome device in many ways, provided that you find some good use for it.

Finally, the official Twitter client for iPad has been released. Feature wise, this is probably the most complete Twitter client for iPad to date. Some of the features, as listed by the official Twitter blog are as follows.
I don’t know if this is first for an Apple event but well, Apple has just announced that they are going to live stream September 1st “Special Media Event” which will be mainly geared towards their new 2010 iPod lineup. You will have to have either a Mac running Safari on Mac OS X version 10.6 Snow Leopard, an iPhone or iPod touch running iOS 3.0 or higher, or an iPad to watch the streaming. If you are a Windows user, you will be out of luck which kinda sucks in my opinion.
