If you hadn’t heard yet, Geo Hot became a little disturbed when chronic posted the exploit he is going to use to to make a new jailbreak program that will jailbreak them all on their wiki. He even threatened to stop making his program but in the end Chronic and George both explained their opinions and what was going on and below is what he had to say about it.

” Minor setback today, when Chronic revealed the exploit that this will use. For apparently no purpose except to save face in front of their donators. Future reference, never donate until you have a product in hand and working. Look, as much as I fight with the dev team, they always have the community’s interests at heart, maybe even more so than me. But chronic just stomped all over what the community wants. Who can actually do something with the info they released? Well, you know, Apple. ”

Together, the two companies plan to create, market and distribute both products and services featuring Android-powered phones on the Verizon Wireless network. The two companies plan to co-develop handsets that will come with “innovative applications” created by both, as well as third-party developers already seen on the Android Marketplace. Read more…

The posting of the usb_control_msg(0×21, 2) Exploit by Chronic Dev to the iPhoneWiki caused a little bit of upset today with GeoHot threatening to stop work on the exploit.

“OMG CHRONIC, WHY DID YOU POST THE EXPLOIT? SHIT LIKE THAT MAKES ME NOT WANT TO WORK ANYMORE”

“i discovered that exploit first, and that was really a low blow to try and take credit. have fun with greenpois0n, i am not releasing”

Chronic Dev has since posted the full story on his blog to explain things.

We wanted to make this perfect and bug-free, so it was taking awhile. Soon, people started commenting and emailing me complaints about it taking so long. I can handle this. Then, I start getting ppl threatening to file a dispute with PayPal to get a refund. Read more…

AT&T may be close to making an announcement that it will support Skype and Google Voice on all its handsets, reports the Washington Post.

One source close to the thinking of AT&T executives said the company has been deliberating the decision for weeks and that top executives have said they were close to accepting voice over Internet services on all AT&T phones, including the iPhone. The source spoke on the condition of anonymity because a decision hadn’t been officially announced. Skype currently operates on the iPhone through WiFi access, but not on AT&T’s 3G mobile network.
