Well, here’s a pretty weird thing. It seems as though Borders Bookstore has launched another survey. Pretty normal right? Sure, until you stop and actually look at its latest survey.

Well, they are asking whether you are familiar with “Digital Reading Devices” such as an Amazon Kindle, Sony Book Reader, or a Plastic Logic Reader. Well, if you look, you will also see the “Apple IPAD (large screen reading device)”!

Winners List:

iFlashReady: Andy, Eric, iBlackguy, Tarah, Tom VBS

FX Reel Mono:  Chris, Tony, Ali B, Justin, Richard

Winners will receive an email with details.  Please be sure to check out our next contest coming out soon!

Hey guys, well, we are at week 3 with our month of giveaways! Weeks 1 & 2 were awesome, and we hope to continue that trend.

Well, enough of that, well, this week we have 2 gems to giveaway from our good friends at Imaging Luminary, LLC!

This time, you can reintroduce yourself with iFlashReady and its cousin FX Reel Mono! We are giving away 5 copies of each!

We know how much you loved iFlashReady so we’re bringing it to you again! If you didn’t win before, make sure to get in on the action for another chance to win it!

(Now, to tell you the truth, I do not have much for week 4, lol, I’m trying, but if you have any suggestions, post them with your contest entry!)

NO DOUBLE, TRIPLE, OR WHATEVER POSTING WHEN DOING THIS!

I bent the rules last time, but that will not happen this time. So tell me what you would like to see us giveaway on week 4, and I will talk to the corresponding developers.

Again, our standard rules apply:

•Leave a comment below. You can say something nice, you can say “I want it!”, or even “I love you (Alan/Mike)!” if you feel the need.

•You may only enter this specific giveaway once. If you enter this giveaway more than once you’ll be automatically disqualified. We have iPhone OS enabled robots, that not only kick ass, but they also check to ensure fairness. In other words, be careful when commenting or our very own iBot will be very angry.

•NO DOUBLE POSTING! Period.

•Contest is open to anyone worldwide!
Winner will be chosen randomly.

This time, the giveaway officially starts on Monday, August 3, 2009 @ 12:00:am (central time) and will officially end on Sunday, August 9, 2009 @ 11:59:pm (central time)!

So there you go ladies and gentlemen, you know how this goes down! Have at it!

Good luck!

Hey everyone! This is great news. My sources can confirm that iPhone OS 3.0.1 does not update your baseband or even make it necessary for a new version of redsn0w! So, this is actually some refreshing news. This is the first time that Apple has released firmware for the sole purpose of “fixing bugs” and not killing an unlock or a jailbreak for us iPhone 3G users! Great news for all! This gives you a couple of months to react and buy an iPhone 3G S! Unlock it, and forever jailbreak it! I may be doing this as well if I sell my iPhone 3G in the near future. So, all you have to do, is hook your iPhone up to iTunes on your Mac/PC, and hit “check for updates”, then let it download and install! Afterwards, just go into redsn0w, and choose an iPhone OS 3.0 ipsw (not the 3.0.1 ipsw) and run it. Apple has not changed a thing other than their messages application! (I would make sure to have iTunes 8.2 as that’s still tethering/jailbreak friendly.) Then enjoy!

Guys, this is very important and everyone should read this immediately!

The iPhone’s Messages app apparently has had a killer SMS flaw on it, now this has existed for a couple months now, well Apple hasn’t done anything about it. The bug still exists in the latest 3.1 beta.

Well, that bug has been exploited by malicious hackers, hackers that give us good hackers a bad name.

All iPhones are vulnerable!

If you get a text message with just a square in it, you have been hijacked. Now, when this bug is exploited, they can take complete control of your iPhone. They can listen in by using the mic, take pics, take video, send stuff using email or sms, it just like them using veency, but from any part of the world.

The only solution is to turn your phone off, or restore and put it into dfu mode and “set up as new phone”.

NEVER GIVE OUT YOUR PHONE NUMBER TO JUST ANYONE ON THE INTERNET! THERE ARE BAD PEOPLE OUT THERE!!!

That’s all for now.

Yes everyone. As we get closer to September, Apple gets closer to releasing iPhone OS 3.1!

We don’t have much other than it fixes some huge bugs and that it brings better performance. The only feature so far is that you can now copy/paste small videos with the iPhone 3G S.

I’ll update this if we can confirm any other features.
