iPhone rumors have heightened!

At this point “iPhone 5” rumors are beginning to heat up as more and more images begin to “show up” across the net.

I have looked around and came across one that may be real and seems more legit than most…

Although a redesign is inevitable to give a potentially bigger screen (4 inches) and a smaller dock connector to make space for the rumored “stereo speakers” (instead of 1 speaker *with increased sizes*). There is also rumors of them moving the Headphone hack to the bottom (next to the speakers) and making the phone even thinner than the 4S.

Pod2G give his “Why Jailbreak?” Reasons

Why jailbreak ?

“There are multiple reasons to jailbreak, including :

• changing the iOS experience with powerful tweaks that can’t ever exist on the AppStore : SBSettings, WinterBoard, IntelliScreenX, LockInfo, and lot of others…
• playing retro games on console and arcade emulators.
• having access to a unix shell in you pocket, and all the open source software that can run on a unix OS.

The jailbreak is not meant for (and we are totally against it) :

• pirating AppStore applications

Also please don’t pirate Cydia tweaks, there are people working hard on these, and the price is usually low. There’s no reason to do that.”

Pod2G Jailbreak Update

Pod2G makes a new post about the 5.1.1 Untethered Jailbreak, also asks a favor/demand.

Brilliant Apple iPod Controller

Looking around online, I found something that I think everyone could use.

If Apple manages to “patent” this it would cost a good amount but it would be a grand idea still.
Of course it would need to be a bluetooth connection for “low power consumption” but it would allow “kid” drivers to keep their hands on the steering wheel while they learn to drive.
