So, the DROID is here, remember the device that was going to save the day against the evil iPhone and AT&T’s horrid service. Engadget has been posting articles all week, along with reviews, etc. In the process of reading these, I stumbled upon an interesting story about DROID tethering plans. Looks like you’re going to [...]
If you haven’t heard by now, a kid started taking over jailbroken iPhones in the Netherlands.

I’ve tried, twice, and the iPhone without all the possibilities of Jailbreaking just isn’t that useful for me. Having said that, Apple’s latest attempt to stop Jailbreaking on the 3Gs shows they are beginning to take jailbreaking seriously. Apple [...]
