With all the problems we heard about the iPhone 4’s connection issues with the so called “Death Grip”, one would wonder why there would be a metal case on the market made out of metal. But here we are, with one tough and expensive ($300) Case-Mate Titanium iPhone case.
The beautiful case is machined from a single piece of titanium which provides strength and a modern sleek look. Titanium, which can be found in luxury vehicles and jet engines, adds durability and chances are, the case will outlive the iPhone 4. A laser etched logo puts a nice finishing touch to the case. The kit also comes with a tool set as minor assembly is required as well as buttons for volume are included. Read More →

DigiTimes is reporting that ASUS plans to launch an Android-based handset by the end of the year. No details other than a fourth quarter launch. Will it make it to the US? What bands will it support? Will it have a slide-out QWERTY? More questions than answers at this point, but having another major OEM like ASUS entering the market will only mean a brighter future for Google’s smartphone OS.
Well, well… Dev-Team has done it again. Even a virgin 3.1.2 iPhone can now be jailbroken. This just shortly after rumors Apple will soon release new hardware that is “un-jailbreakable”.
Version 3.1.4 of PwnageTool supports the 3.1.2 release of the iPhone software for iPhone 2G/3G/3GS and iPod Touch 1G/2G.
Caution: Please head over to the dev-team blog, read and then re-read the instructions and warning before upgrading.
The AT&T Tilt 2 (aka HTC TouchPro 2) and Pure (aka HTC Diamond 2) should be showing up at AT&T very soon. Both phones will feature the new Windows Mobile 6.5 and an enhanced version of TouchFLO. The Touch 2 should carry a price of about $300 after rebates and a 2 year contract and the Pure should run about half that, $150, after rebates and 2 year contract.
The original Tilt and it’s older siblings have been my choice for WinMo phones for the past 5+ years, until I picked up a 3G iPhone, so I’m looking forward to spending some quality time with the Tilt 2 in the very near future — perhaps it’ll sway me back over to the WinMo side of the fence.
Looks like Saurik is working some new magicks for Jailbroken iPhones. Just after the 3.0.1 release yesterday, Cydia was updated with a message stating:
Users of 3.0 who are willing to wait for 3.0.1 may wish to wait a while longer ;P
(saurk is working on something that is going to make the upgrade process a lot simpler for people who are already using jailbroken devices. Note that by “a while” I mean “a week”, not “mere hours from now, so check quickly and rapidly” ;P .)
No more details will be given for now.
The Apple iPhone upgrade process for minor upgrades has never made much sense to me. It seems the 3.0.1 upgrade is right around the 300mb mark, and I’m guessing a patch could be created thats significantly smaller. Perhaps Saurik has devised a way to diff the 3.0 vs. 3.0.1 and just patch up the few files that have changed?
