TC is reporting that Apple will be holding a product event later this month in New York, which will focus on publishing and eBooks (sold through Apple’s iBooks platform) rather than iAds. Attendance will also be more publishing industry-oriented than consumer-focused. The event will unveil improvements to the iBooks platform, and is not “major.” Stay tuned for more details
This has nothing to do with improving your personal device ( at this momment ) but it can improve your life. Times can be tough right now, you may or may not have a job, you need money and i know that you are skilled. I know this sounds like an ad, or something like that… but the thing is that i have nothing in common with this comapny and i am not getting paid to deliver this message.I just thought that some of you might be interested in this.

The Dev-Team has announced that the new firmware 2.2.1 closes the “Injection hole” used by yellowsn0w to unlock 3G iPhones. While the “injection hole” still exists in the 1st gen iPhones you still should not upgrade until the Dev-Team updates the Pwns. You have been warned. It usually takes 24 to 48 hours for the Dev-Team to update the Pwns. So just sit back and relax, they are working on it.
If you are on an official carrier the unlock is of no importance to you. In a day or two (hopefully) QuickPwn will be updated to use the new 2.2.1 firmware.You will be able to update then, and rejailbreak.
If you need the unlock hold off on any updates until otherwise given the go ahead. Updating will result in your iPhone being locked and unusable on your nonofficial carrier. In the past Pwnagetool has been able to update while preserving the baseband of your iPhone. I can not state this will be the case for the new Firmware. The closing of the “injection hole” sounds more like Apple didn’t update the baseband, but just secured the vulnerability in the 2.2 firmware.
You might ask why would Apple only block the unlock and not jailbreaking also. Well Apple has contracts with carriers all over the world to be the only carriers that offer service for the 3G. Apple doesn’t want to stop jailbreaking because it voids your warranty. Basically the same as if you bought a brand new 3G and went out in the parking lot and smashed it on the ground. Apple isn’t going to replace it. If you break your iPhone you have to buy another, and that makes Apple more money. If you unlock your phone Apple loses money, because if they don’t stop you they get sued by the carriers. It’s your iPhone you can do what ever you want with it. Apple just has to cover their butts and try to keep them locked to official carriers.
I hope this not only convinced you to wait on your firmware upgrade, but also explained to you why you should always hold off until the Dev-Team has had time to update the Pwns to work with the new firmwares. New features are fine and dandy as long as they don’t take away all the other nifty features you have added.

Do you remember 2+ years ago when Steve Jobs first said the magic word : ” iPhone ” ? I know you do, but you remember it as a fan, in some cases a worshiper, but still…. You know who remembers that day like it was yesterday ? EVERYBODY in the industry. When the iPhone came out, it ruined everybodys plans. Everybody wants to copy the iPhone, but they didn’t succeed not even today after all this time.
I’m not talking here about the N97, or the android, not even about the Blackberry. Those are still top notch phones, that can be a real threat for the iPhone. But are you aware about the Asian cell phone industry?
Yesterday i presented you the proof of copy-paste concept on iPhone and iPod touch. Well today that become reality for me and some other people that had the opportunity to test it.
So what exactly is PasteBud, how does it work and what does it do exactly? Well it is a piece of javascript that enables the copy paste feature on your iPhone/iPod touch. You can copy text from any webpage in MobileSafari and than paste it into Mail.
PasteBud does not require a jailbreak device. If you are on a jailbreaked device, don’t worry this will work. There might be a free version and a premium version of PasteBud, but since this will be available for everybody only in a few hours from now , i don’t have any info on that.
New service offers customers unprecedented freedom and value EMI Music, independents and music publishers join offering
Nokia announced the debut of its pioneering Comes with Music digital entertainment service, which offers consumers a new way to discover and enjoy music. Customers who buy a Comes With Music device will be able to explore and enjoy a diverse catalog of music of international and local artists with unlimited access to millions of tracks for a year, keeping the music once the year is over and revolutionizing their digital music experience.
“Comes With Music sets a precedent for consumer value and convenience that the rest of the digital entertainment industry is already copying,” said Tero Ojanperä, executive vice president and head of the Nokia entertainment and communities business. “Trying out a music recommendation is spontaneous as customers can download without worrying about the cost of an album or a track – the freedom and simplicity of the service is unparalleled. And Comes With Music gives you unlimited access to the millions of tracks in the Nokia Music Store and the music is all yours to keep – because it’s not a revolution unless you get to keep your music.”
Comes With Music offers one year of unlimited access to the entire Nokia Music Store catalogue and customers can keep all the music that they have downloaded at the end of the year to continue enjoying their music collection. Comes With Music will be available across a range of Nokia devices, including the new Nokia 5800 XpressMusic – also announced today and the Nokia N95 8GB and Nokia 5310 XpressMusic. With more than 10 million units sold globally since its introduction last year, the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic is the best selling music phone in the world.

I have been asked today to do a review for a site that offers solution to constipation problems. This is something i would normally not write about, well in this blog at least. But since this is the only blog i got ( i got like 4-5 others but i dont deal with them anymore ) and i thought it was funny as hell to be asked to write about ” constipation ” , well……. Anyway bare with me, cause as funny as it sounds, this is , in fact, a serious deal. I mean imagine yourself as a dead end street : all sorts of stuff are going in and nothing comes out.
Self-massage treatment constipation appears to be borrowed from China and this type of massage is closely related to acupuncture and considered to be effective for a similar range of health problems. Their website is presented to you in a very minimalistic design but pretty straight forward. The hilarious thing is that they actually answer the question ” What is constipation? “… i mean if you got on their site ( from google, or from blogs like mine, or a friend told you , really doesent matter ) , doesent that imply that you are pretty familiar with the term?
