Porn and iPhone, it is out there and every once in a while you may even find porn in there. In an Apple Retail Store on one of the iPhone and iPod Touch demos, that is.

That’s exactly what happened just the other day as a mother found her 10 year old girl mesmerized by some X-rated content on one of the Apple Store demo devices:

“I called to complain and was told matter of factly by staff this happens a lot as people come in and download it for a laugh, I don’t find it funny and all my friends think it’s disgusting, but Apple say there is nothing they can do to stop it.”

Apple does a fantastic job of keeping smut out of iTunes and their App Store, surely they can figure something out for their real-world stores.

Live in Australia? Have an iPhone? Do you use the iPhone’s built-in Maps app, Navigon, or TomTom [iTunes links] to navigate? If you answered yes to all three of those questions, then I have some bad news for you: under the Australian Road Rule 8th Amendment, all use of the iPhone in your car is soon to be banned unless you buy a cradle for it, including using it as a GPS navigator.

An article from the Sydney Morning Herald initially makes it sound as though you won’t be able to use such apps at all, especially after reading this quote from a spokesperson for VicRoads, the traffic authority for the Australian state of Victoria: “A phone will only be allowed to be used for its primary purpose. If it’s a phone, it’s a phone.” But once you read farther down the article states, “Drivers will only be able to use mobile phones if they are placed Read more…

Now all you have to do is plug in your iPhone to the computer and open itunesHow to Find UDID:
- Connect your iPhone/iPod to your computer.
- Start iTunes
- In iTunes, select your iPhone/iPod in the ‘Devices’ section (on Left Pane) and go to the Summary tab.
- Click on the word “Serial Number” to reveal the Identifier field and the 40 character UDID.

- Left Click on the UDID number and press ⌘-C (Command-C) on Mac & Ctrl-C on Windows to copy the UDID to your clipboard.

Additional Notes:
- Since UDID is an insanely long string its best to copy-paste it from iTunes to avoid typos

Anyone familiar with the “manual” downgrade their iPhone 3GS has from 3.1 to 3.0 times the problems should look at this program, “Assistant 3Gs downgrade” from difrnt.com cares about the hosts file and helps you step by step in activating the DFU modes.

Afterwards you can then proceed according to our instructions (from step 3).

The 800KB great program is only available for Windows and, of course, costs nothing.

We have released a new update for Ringtones coming to version 2.88 and becomes compatible with firmware 3.0 and 3.1. The purpose of this application is to convert the songs in the media library, into ringtones for iPhone to be set as ringintones.

The operation is very simple: By running the application you must click Start Converting. Now scroll through the list of artists and choose the song you want. A click on the title will bring up a pop-up asking if you use the Quick Convert Convert or Advanced. Unfortunately, the second option is not available yet so you just need to click on the Quick Conversion, wait about a minute and set it as a ringtone Read more…

This is an iPhone mockup NOT REAL OR ANY SPECULATION

Chip design firm ARM today announced the development of two dual-core chip designs based on the company’s Cortex-A9 platform. Implementations of the new chip designs, which will deliver performance in excess of 2 GHz while drawing less than 0.25 W of power per CPU, will be available in the fourth quarter of this year.

The Cortex-A9 speed-optimized hard macro implementation will provide system designers with an industry standard ARM processor incorporating aggressive low-power techniques to further extend ARM’s performance leadership into high-margin consumer and enterprise devices within the power envelope necessary for compact, high-density and thermally constrained environments. This hard macro implementation operates in excess of 2GHz when selected from typical silicon and represents an ideal solution for high-margin performance-oriented applications.

ARM is positioning the chip design for use in such consumer electronics devices as set-top boxes, digital TVs, and printers, although it has been claimed in the past that the chips would be appropriate for mobile platforms and would appear in those devices in 2010.

The iPhone 3GS utilizes a Cortex-A8-based processor from Samsung, suggesting that the Cortex-A9 could be a natural fit for the next-generation iPhone, although the thermally-constrained environment and energy requirements of the iPhone would likely dictate that the chip be underclocked as has been done for several iPhone and iPod touch models.

Apple, which acquired ARM chip design firm P.A. Semi in April 2008, has been rumored to be working on its own ARM-based chip designs for both the iPhone and the much-anticipated Apple tablet, and the introduction of dual-core Cortex-A9 processors would offer the company additional computing power and energy-saving options upon which to base its device designs.

the oddly named iTwinge, an iPhone sleeve that does the trick in the simplest of fashions: it merely covers the software keys with real, physical ones. Cool, one might think for a split second: I can finally type without looking! However, a closer inspection of iTwinge reveals a number of problems.

First of all, it makes your iPhone a lot fatter than such a sexy gadget should be. Furthermore, iPhone’s keyboard has some advantages over physical keyboards: it adapts to different situations (for example, the “.com” key is only there when you need it), it gives you a choice of typing some alternative symbols if you press and hold a key, etc. None of those will really translate well to iTwinge. Not to mention the fact that it won’t work particularly well when you flip the iPhone over to its side.

Still, it might be useful in certain situations. For example, if you must write a blog post or a long email, and the only device you have at your disposal is the iPhone, iTwinge might come in handy. According to the manufacturer, “an average user will improve their speed by 30% to 40% and simultaneously reduce typing errors by 70 – 80%”.

If you’re interested, bear in mind that it must be plugged into the iPhone, and it uses some of its power, but luckily it doesn’t require any software. It works with the iPhone 3G and 3GS and you can get it for the price of $29.99.
