The latest OS for iPhone included many cool new features and apps, but they came at a price.

A recent report from reputable number-counting outfit Flurry has highlighted to us what we essentially already know - smartphones and tablets now make up the majority of the U.S. handheld gaming market in a near 60/40 split; which by our reckoning, will only continue to divide as specs are increased and bulkier dedicated portable consoles become less and less relevant.
Yesterday, we published a post in which we talked about a Chronic Dev Team member claiming that he had found a bug which would help in untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. Today, the same member has let jailbreaking enthusiasts know that if they wish to jailbreak their iOS device untethered, they should stay away from iOS 5.0.1.
Siri was announced as one of the three major features of the iPhone 4S back on October 4th at the Let’s Talk iPhone event.
