A few months after Apple released iOS 5 to the public last year, a major bug was found in the software's new iMessage application. Several users reported that their iMessage accounts continued to remain active after wiping their devices.
Gizmodo added fuel to the fire yesterday when it published several images of strange iMessage conversations it was receiving on an iPhone after visiting an Apple Store for tech support. Apparently, when a Genius inserted his personal SIM card into the phone to test the device, the handset locked on to his iMessage account...
Did he say "Everyday I'm awesome, awesome, awesome," or "Yet again I'm hustling, hustling, hustling?" If you often ask questions like that, then perhaps some lyrics to your favorite songs might help.

Okay, so we've been debating running this story for quite some time now, but we figured since this involves Siri, that ultimately we should do so.
You're probably all aware of the so-called Siri port that runs on some Russian server hosted who-knows-where. Well, apparently it technically works, although many have had very mixed success in getting it to work.
Inside, we'll show you what you need to do to go about obtaining this "port" for yourself, although it's not without some disclaimers...

For those of you wondering whether or not iBooks 2 works on the iPhone or iPod touch, the answer is yes, with a catch.

Last Summer, Apple unveiled the latest version of its mobile operating system, iOS 5. The update contained more than 200 new features including iMessage, iCloud, and a revamped Notification Center.
Apple released the software last October for the iPhone 3GS, and all newer devices. So what do you do if you own a first or second generation iPhone or iPod touch and want to install iOS 5? Enter Whited00r...
This is kind of interesting. After all of the attempts we've seen by developers to try and port Siri to non-Apple-supported devices, it appears this guy did it by simply restoring his iPod touch from an iPhone 4S profile.
How'd it happen? Well as Gordon tells it, he recently purchased a late-model white iPod touch. And instead of setting it up as a new device, he decided to restore it from an iCloud backup made from his iPhone 4S...
