Last night MeDevil sent us the latest beta version of its program, iBlueNova. Now it is ready to be released and have to wait only a few days that we can talk Saurik for publication in Cydia Store. Read more…
Saturday Night Live’s ‘Weekend Update’ with Seth Meyers joined the fray of people who were sick of AT&T’s poor network reception:
“It was reported this week that Google would soon launch its own cellphone as a challenge to the iPhone. Also a challenge to the iPhone? Making phone calls.”
While Saturday Night Live hasn’t been funny for years (IMHO), and the joke was rather feeble, this is further cause for embarrassment from Apple and AT&T and just additional fodder for Verizon’s case as to why they should have the iPhone.

Do you ever get disturbed at night by a phone call or that annoying new email alert? Do you ever get attention of others in meeting because your phone just ringed? Try auto silent app, it puts phone into silent mode during meetings and in night.
Were you watching the two-hour season premiere of House last night on Fox? Maybe you were watching one of the other prime-time shows, but if you had your eyes on the screen during some of the commercial breaks, you probably saw at least one of the three new iPhone ads that hit the airwaves last night.
Each of the new ads highlights a total of six apps, up from the three that were formerly the focus of the older ads. The first ad I saw last night, “Dine,” looks at Zagat to Go, QuickOffice, TripCase, New York Subway 09, Epicurious Recipes & Shopping List, and Gap Style Mixer. [Note: all app links will open the iTunes App Store]
The next ad I viewed was “Nature,” featuring iXpenseIt, Daily Finance, Guitar Toolkit, Lonely Planet Mandarin Phrasebook, iBird Explorer Plus, and the ever-popular Pizza Hut app. I didn’t get a chance to see the third advertisement, “Pass,” until I visited the Apple website this morning. It’s a 30-second quick look at Fandango, G-Park, VocabWiz College Vocabulary, 365 Crosswords, Classics, and ABC Animals.
I’m happy to see that Apple is maintaining focus on the number and variety of apps in the App Store, instead of resorting to the narcissistic, touchy-feely, celebrity-filled tripe that T-Mobile has been using for their Android-based MyTouch 3G ads.
