Jailbreak available for iOS 4.0 and iPhone 4

A new jailbreak is available for the lates apple update, 4.0 and can also be installed on the iPhone 4. The jailbreak is available from jailbreakme.com and can be installed on-device, no need for a computer. The software has support for the 4.0 software which wasn't available before. However it's not all gravy, because the jailbreak is so new, there are still a few bugs in the software and can cause some problems. I would recommend waiting a few revisions before jailbreaking.

iPhone 4 Cracked

Users have reported the iPhone 4 as "fragile" and "weak" because of it's strength. If the phone is dropped, the glass can break easily, rendering the phone useless.

Apple claims that the glass is chemically hardened to be 30 times stronger than plastic and the same type used in helicopters.

One person by the name of Steven (who didn't want his last name revealed) has complained about his broken iPhone 4 and identified Apple's description as "a load of crap". He didn't put the cover on his iPhone when he first got it because he thought it would not get broken.

It has glass on both the front and the back of the phone, which makes the phone vulnerable to getting broken.

The phone has already been put down with its antenna problems.

Smartphones Unsecure

Smartphones are becoming less secure and vulnerable to attacks from hackers. There are apps out there that secretly steal your contact info, text messages and web history. A company by the name of lookout did a search on nearly 300,000 apps and about half of them turned out to be data collecting apps. The main problem is mobile devices because they do not have a firewall, especially apple devices, they do not currently support any firewall software unlike computers. When an app is published it is supposed to be checked by apple and sometimes apple just let's it through. The developer may not even know that there is spy coding inside an app which they have created which can be dangerous.

iPhone 4 is Fantastic

I tried out the new iPhone 4 today and found it great, the new retina screen is crystal clear and the processing speed is lightning fast.

The iPhone screen is so clear that the apps look like they are blurry and of poor quality. the camera on the front of the iPhone has good resolution and the camera on the back with its flash is amazing. 

The buttons are round and the back of the phone is flat, making it more square. It has two microphones which work together to reduce back round noise. I instantly wanted to buy one although i didn't have the money. 

The queue at the Apple store was massive, and stretched almost the length of the street.

The new Mac Pro

The new Mac Pro can come in 4, 6, 8 or 12 core processors.


It has the most up to date graphics card and can get up to 8TB of storage. You can get maximum 32GB of RAM with the eight slot the Mac Pro has. It has bluetooth, 802.11N networking and two Gigabit Ethernet ports. You can get a Magic Trackpad for the Mac Pro, it is just like the iPod touch or iPhone touchscreen.
