As you may have already noticed, jailbreaking an Apple TV 2 brings a massive wealth of new features to an otherwise mundane little black box.
Not only can you view live sports, stream movies from you Mac or PC, and access weather forecasts, but now you can perform cloud backups, and stream music without using iTunes.
This is made possible with the latest beta release of aTV Flash (black), which is a major upgrade to the previously released beta. More details on how you can snag these new features, plus the full change log, right after the break...
Reading small text is difficult. Reading small text on a 3.5" screen is insane. Sure, Safari allows for pinch to zoom, but what if you just want to magnify your text old-school style? Sadly, there's no default provision to do so.
As always, that's where the jailbreak community comes in. This latest tweak — Magnifier for Safari — makes it really simple to dynamically boost the size of your text. Check inside for a brief demonstration of this text-size boosting tweak...
Well, that's another rumor quashed. Those paying attention may remember us telling you a couple of days ago how a Best Buy employee had tipped 'This is My Next' that the retailer was expecting a new Apple fixture to arrive in October.
The magic date was October 21st, with a member of store management required to be in-store at some un-godly hour to help facilitate the installation. This led to much excitement, with some believing that the reason behind the new 'point of sale' being the release of a new iPhone.
Unfortunately, it turns out that's not the case, with the real reason being wholly underwhelming. Best Buy is getting an update for its in-store iPad display.
All together now for a resounding 'meh'...
A recent report from The Wall Street Journal said that Sprint will definitely be getting the next iPhone this Fall. The publication stated that Sprint would begin selling the device in mid-October.
After the report, Sprint told its staff to not discuss the iPhone rumors with customers. The carrier also scheduled a "Strategy Update" event on October 7th, hinting at an iPhone announcement. The carrier's ETF was also raised to $350 — all of this activity pointing towards a partnership with Apple.
Now, the most boldface piece of evidence for the Sprint iPhone has surfaced...
Apple hasn't been successful at the social network scene. There was Game Center (Do people still use that?). And there was the diaster known as Ping.
Apple hasn't gained traction with social network integration in iTunes, but the Cupertino company looks to be stepping up its game in iOS 5. It's already been announced that there will be Twitter integration in iOS 5, and recent findings point towards a new social network from Apple dubbed "Find My Friends."
These days, iPad cases are a dime a dozen. You can get them in all sorts of colors, styles, and materials; if you've seen one, you've seen them all.
But not so fast; a small company out of Brooklyn, New York is out to change this perception of the average ho-hum iPad case.
Introducing the iPad Book Jacket, a hand-made, customizable iPad case from the folks at Caseable. Visually, it's fully customizable, meaning you can put that "cute thing your cat did" on the cover if you're feeling particularly ridiculous...
If unique is what you're after, then you're going to love JackBacks.
If there's one downside to everyone and their grandmother being the proud owner of an iPhone 4 right now, it's that there's nothing really unique about the handset itself. Granted, some may have a fancy case, but other than that, all our iPhones look the same.
The JackBacks wooden iPhone 4 case is sure to set you apart from the rest of the boring, bumper-clad iPhone lovers out there...
In an update to the Atari's Greatest Hits iOS app, the evergreen gaming company has included support for an unannounced arcade stick. The "Atari Arcade -- Duo Powered" joystick will be offered to the public soon for insanely addictive gaming on iPads everywhere.
The app's description links to a web page that shows a photo of the mystery device, along with a short description which doesn't really tell us all that much. The picture is enough for us to know we need this thing in our lives...
