Developed by Canadian company Wireless Dynamics, the $63 iCarte gives the iPhone Near Field Communications capabilities with the carrier's online payment service/digital wallet and South Korean credit card companies.
BiteSMS is without a doubt my favorite jailbreak app. I use it several times a day to write and read text messages. Up until now, you couldn't run BiteSMS on a jailbroken iPhone running iOS 5 beta. But due to the overwhelming demand, the BiteSMS team has decided to release an iOS-compatible version of the app.
Because it is in its early beta development, you can expect BiteSMS to have quite a few bugs. However, the die hard BiteSMS fan that you are will most likely see past those issues and focus on the exciting new features...

The Loop points to some interesting findings in a recent report by Interpret, a marketing research firm. The work explores the iPad's popularity among both traditional and non-traditional gamers in the United States.

Back in July, we reported that the US military was working on integrating consumer smartphone and tablet technology into soldier's field gear. Apparently the military's technology, at least in that regard, was a bit outdated.
Now it looks like the folks pushing for updated technology have recorded their first win, as WIRED is reporting that the 3rd Aircraft Wing of the US Marines have purchased 32 iPads. The tablets are for its Light Attack Helicopter Squadron (HLMA)...
