Hey, I just saw that in a window display and wondered where I could get one. I'll have to go hunt one down before I head back to the US. Thanks, Engadget!

No, seriously, look it up. Google "sample size". Even if you don't understand the math, it still works.

N=1200 gives you a margin of error of less than 3%. It's called statistics, AND IT WORKS. Look it up.

Now if only they'd fix that "crap grammar" button..

Can you think of any reason why Apple would hash the database file other than to make it a pain in the ass for third parties to update the device? I sure can't.

Nope, neither seems to work under Leopard. Damn!

Gah! Just when I'd finished rebuilding the toolchain from svn, too. I noticed the new toolchain install docs on google code have a path to the 10.4u SDK in the config--does that mean it'll work under Leopard now? Any way to get this package working on Leopard?

Or just install iphonedisk and copy the mp3 files into the Library/Ringtones folder.

I'm sure this is the same thing iToner's doing, using the private MobileDevice framework to write files to the jailed (i.e., safe) area of the phone.

I haven't seen iToner, but a mate says it's the most nag-tastic app on the planet.

If you just want to add a ringtone, iFuntastic is great. But if you think you'll want to install apps, look for iOpener (unfortunately, there's lots of other stuff called iOpener) and install the SSH server on your phone. After you do that, you'll never have to jailbreak your phone again--you have access to the full filesystem, and just upload files with an SFTP client. And if you want to install an app you'll have to do this anyway to set the permissions on the executable.

A few years? I think that came out in 2000..
