If you didn't know yet that Geohot was into hip hop, this one might come as a surprise to you. After being sued by Sony for jailbreaking the PlayStation 3, Geohot decided to respond via a rap video.
This is actually not bad at all. If the wonder kid doesn't make a career out of his hacking skills, I'm sure he'll still be able to make a living off his rapping capacities...
The iPhone 4.2.1 jailbreak tool GreenPois0n has been updated to version RC6. This update brings support for the Apple TV and fixes emulators compatibility issues with GreenPois0n.
Since it came out last week, GreenPois0n has been updated several times, and can now also be used to jailbreak the Verizon iPhone. Although RedSn0w can also provide an untethered jailbreak, GreenPois0n still remains our recommended jailbreak for 4.2.1...
Giddy about how many customers AT&T will lose now that an alternative carrier is available in the US? You're not alone.
Mobile Ad Firm, Chitika, has established a live tracker that tracks the number of Verizon iPhone's that currently access its ad network via cellular signal.
Right now, that total stands at 3.6%, which likely means that there are a little over one million Verizon iPhone's currently in use...

There are some great apps on the iPhone that can help you navigate through a successful Valentine's Day. V-day can be especially stressful for us guys, but the iPhone is always there for moral support.

Yesterday AT&T started sending text messages to its iPhone customers, offering them 1,000 bonus rollover minutes. After waiting a few hours for my SMS to come in, I kinda forgot all about it until I saw a tweet from TUAW's Victor Agreda confirming AT&T's "gift".
Don't you think AT&T has been very generous lately? First they offered unlimited data to some special customers, then they changed their texting plans to give us more for less, then they gave 20% off iPhone accessories and 2GB of free data to tethering customers, and finally, they are offering free mobile to mobile calling to some of their customers.
If I didn't know any better, I'd think that AT&T is trying to prevent us from switching to Verizon...
If you've been trying to impress a significant other with your iPad, it probably won't work. According to Retrevo's Gadgetology study, using an iPad is lower on the list of things men and women find attractive. Actually, it's even less attractive than reading a book.
Just in time for Valentine's Day, Retrevo asked consumers whether they notice other people's gadgets and how someone’s gadgets affect their opinions of them. The results show that using an iPad is the least likely thing a person would be attracted to...
Here is an interesting rumor started by Cult Of Mac, which claims that Apple is working on revamping their notification system. No big surprise here so far as the iOS notification system is passable at best, and usually is one of the top complains from heavy users.
The surprising bit of information is that Apple might be buying out an iPhone developer company, instead of working on its own. According to Cult of Mac, Apple is currently talking to one small developer to purchase his company to improve and integrate his work in a future version of iOS...
Talk about something that would hurt iTunes' bottom line, and many hearts, including Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
Reeling after the App Store rejection of their eBook Reader app, a Sony executive has hinted that the company's catalogue of music could have a limited shelf life on iTunes.
As you can probably imagine, Sony's music catalogue goes waaaay back, and includes some of the most popular recording artists in music history; think Beyonce, Bob Dylan (a Jobs favorite), etc.
Would they really dare to take on Apple in this manner?
It's hard to believe, but it was almost a month ago when Steve Jobs announced he was taking a leave of absence from Apple due to undisclosed medical issues.
What has he been doing? Does this spell doom for the next iPad and iPhone release dates?
These were some of questions that everyone was anxious to know; exactly how would Steve's leave impact Apple's ability to maintain their status quo?
Well if a recent Wall Street Journal report is anything to go by, the impact has been minimal, if any. That's because throughout his leave, Steve Jobs has been maintaining his storied work ethic...

It had been a while since we'd heard rumors of an iPhone nano. But today, the rumor mill is back on. According to Bloomberg, Apple is currently working on a smaller and cheaper version of the iPhone.
This smaller iPhone would be sold $200 without a contract. The goal here would obviously be to gain market shares against Google's Android who comes with dozens of various devices priced differently, aiming at a larger population...
It seems like at least once a month we report a story about the iPhone's security problems, and this latest security revelation is a bit shocking.
Researchers from the German Fraunhofer Institute Secure Information Technology have discovered a way to crack iPhone passwords via jailbreaking in about 6 minutes.
We don't mean your iPhone's dinky 4-digit passcode either; we mean everything stored in your keychain; email, VPN, Wi-Fi, the list goes on...
