iPhone 4 “Glassgate” Back in the News

A California resident named Donald LeBuhn has filed a class action lawsuit against Apple.
He claims that his daughter dropped his almost new iPhone 4 from just 3 feet which resulted in the glass shattering. Yup, good ol’ Glassgate is back y’all:
LeBuhn’s beef starts with the fact that Apple markets the strength of the iPhone 4 glass as “20 times stiffer and 30 times harder than plastic,” and is “ultradurable” and made of the same material as the “glass used in helicopters and high-speed trains.”
This, LeBuhn claims, is all part of Apple’s ruse.

Guess Where I am on the Nokia N8 Mystery Tour, And Win Lotsa Nokia Prizes!


HA gotchya attention with the title there, eh? So fun story. Last week Nokia India got in touch with us, and invited me along for a ride that I just couldnt say no to.
Over the next 5 days Nokia India will be flying/driving/sailing me to one or more 

*Mystery* places in India. And each day, I’ll be Tweeting, Flickr-ing, YouTube-ing and blogging hints to where I am, using the various features of the N8.Just to give you an example, I used a certain feature of the Nokia N8, combined with the Gravity Twitter client, to hint about two places that I was at. If you check my twitter, you might find out where I was in the afternoon, and evening *wink wink* . Also because the N8 has such a rocking Camera, I’ll be uploading pictures throughout the day, which should make things a bit easier.

Once you think you’re sure about where I am, head on over to Nokia India’s N8 Mystery Tour Facebook App, and submit your guess. Remember, the more precise, the better. For example, “The Taj Mahal, Agra” would be more precise than just “Agra“. If you’re a Resident of India, and have the closest correct guess, you’ll be in to win Nokia products.

Seas0nPass Guide to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 on Apple TV

A team of hackers at FireCore has just released new tethered jailbreaking tool, Seas0nPass, for iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak. The Seas0nPass jailbreak tool is quite similar to PwnageTool for iPhone and iPod Touch, and it helps you jailbreak the Apple TV.
Seas0nPass
Here’s the note from FireCore team -
NOTE: Currently the jailbreak for the 4.1.1 (iOS 4.2.1) software is ‘tethered’. A tethered jailbreak requires the AppleTV to be connected to a computer for a brief moment during startup.
Seas0nPass makes this as easy as possible, but please do not proceed unless you are comfortable with this process.
Since Seas0nPass works like PwnageTool, you will have to create a custom IPSW file of your Apple TV firmware. Read the following guide to jailbreak your devices.

Seas0nPass Guide to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 on Apple TV

Requirements:
  1. iTunes 10.1.1
  2. Seas0nPass Tool
  3. iOS 4.2.1
  4. Micro-USB cable
