Seriously I am so happy. I wish all you iPhone owners the same apps that have been available with ease on Windows Mobile... I wonder if she could activate the Asian keyboard. It's already installed on the iPhone but Jobs needs to play pocket pool with his options. Hate to think how sticky his phone screen gets.]]>Oct 8th 2007 5:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Nov 11th 2007 2:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 1:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 1:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 1:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 1:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/
/*Plus, Blackjack is pretty awesome - tap the screen to hit, swipe the screen to stay. Fun!*/

Basically, you know whether or not you want to hack your iPhone - if you want that extra functionality, you hack. If not, there's no need.

//Also, until iToner/iPhoneRingtoneMaker get updated, hacking will be the ONLY way to get custom ringtones onto the iPhone]]>Oct 8th 2007 1:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 1:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 1:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/

Basic features like what?

Making phone calls, checking voice mail, sending and receiving text messages, checking the weather, surfing the internet, playing music and video, checking stocks, making calculations, setting up calender events that sync with your computer, browsing photos, capturing photos, checking your email, receiving rich html emails with attachments such as PDFs, Excel and word documents, iWork documents, taking notes, setting up alarms, finding your way with Google Maps, watching youtube videos, buying music straight from the phone, etc...

Those kinds of basic features? You don't have to hack an iPhone to get those features, they are already on it.]]>Oct 8th 2007 3:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/
No. Basic like the ability to send MMS, cut/paste, send SMS using lists in your phonebook and not least basic feature like the ability to run whatever 3rd party application you like, and not only those blessed by Jobs. ]]>Oct 8th 2007 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 4:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/

If some 3rd party apps are ready to go and apparently others will run with but a recompile, can't we not say that Apple, contrary to what people have been saying (and true to their word, although in a convoluted way), isn't doing all they can to stop 3rd party apps running on the iPhone? I mean, as it has been pointed out before, if they really wanted to do that, it would be pretty easy -- authenticating an app with a digital signature before letting it run, for example.]]>Oct 8th 2007 2:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 4:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 2:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/

Actually, more importantly, where are your reasons for saying that?
Especially when the U.S. is obviously ahead of the Brits in technology.
Last time I checked we spend at least 5x more on R&D (don't know how recently though, might be a little off.) And not just compared to the U.S., but worldwide the Brits are definitely not the most advanced. How do you think Britain compares with Finland and Japan?]]>Oct 10th 2007 5:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/Oct 8th 2007 3:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/iphone-v1-1-1-firmware-gets-the-jailbreak-treatment/
