Rene van Belzen on site visits
Congratulations on your record uniques. It’s great if so many people have seen your content. If you don’t mind I’d like to share my thoughts on the number of uniques to a website or blog.

One developer was “hacking around” with some carrier bundle files and iPhone 3.0 and somehow managed to activate the tethering preferences. Not only that, he was also able to actually tether his iPhone 3G to his laptop over USB. Based on the preference panel, it appears that you will be able to tether via USB or Bluetooth.

iPod Touch 2G: Hi, welcome to the jailbreak family
devteam blog:
The iPod Touch 2G is now another member of the “pwned for life” family. It has a fatal flaw in its bootrom that means you will always be able to pwn these devices no matter what firmware updates come along.

Those of you who hang out on IRC or were able to read between the lines...
