I am camping in Sequoia with my family. There is just nothing like waking to the sound of a roaring river and the smell of mint. Dogs, cats, and goats oh my! Friendly animals, good people, and even live music. Fantastic time so far. I’ve even been teaching the kids to play Lunch Money.

iPhone 4 jailbroken!
The iPhone-dev team has announced iPhone 4 jailbreak thanks to another user land exploit from @comex. This is good news for all 4.0 devices although no release date has been given. I am sure that there is much work yet to be done.
iOS 4 is here! and good news for unlockers!
i’ve been so busy that i’ve scarcely had time to mention that Apple released it’s new OS as well as the long awaited iphone 4 (just a few hours away). got yours yet? haven’t got hands on the new devise yet, but i finally installed 4 on my 3gs. If you’ve been waiting to upgrade because you unlock, or if you lost your unlock because of “accidentally” upgrading then you are in luck. Unless your a new bootlrom 3GS or you didn’t back up your blobs, you are most certainly stoked right now. 3G iphone and Touch 2g are upgradable, jailbreakable, and unlockable. the new base band (and all previous) have been unlocked. great work by @iphone_dev. Touch 3g users and new bootrom 3gs users are doomed for the moment, so be careful about “accidentally” upgrading. for now. once the new device gets in the right hands, it’s only a matter of time. and if you haven’t learned by now, BACK UP YOUR BLOBS!
it’s not iPad security leak! it’s at$t’s security leak of iPad account info!
The media keeps reporting an iPad security leak. it’s not iPad security leak! it has very little to do with the iPad. it’s at$t’s security leak! it’s only that it solely effected owners of 3g iPads with data plan with at$t. all the media cares about is iPad. point the blame where it is due! Security of your user’s private info must be a serious concern for all companies.
Viacom vs Youtube! Great Retort!
vlogbrothers John Green explains how viacom has broken it’s own rules! EFF linked to it, and they make some amazing points.
EDIT: thanks anne for the correction.
WWDC brings new iPhone!
lately it’s been all about the mobile devices. The big announcement was video chat, I take issue with the glaring oversights of this long awaited feature. First off, it requires wifi. That said, you would assume that it works though jabber or aim or some Internet based chat protocol. It doesn’t. It works with some new system that can ONLY video chat with other iPhones 4s. Multitasking and folders are exciting, but it looks like apple just copied the hacks already available to jailbreakers. Twice the screen resolution and the gyroscope are the features i cannot wait to try out. Lets see what AT$T has to say about my upgrade.
