It hasn’t been even a week since we had the first unauthorized iPhone GUI Hello World application binary released. Even though the application just displayed Hello World we were aware of the potential of the iPhone hack. As expected, iPhone hackers have made further progress as they have now developed a full-fledged iPhone application with a graphic user interface and its own icon in the iPhone home screen. The other interesting bit is that the iPhone hack is being hosted on Google Code….

Want to get customers to line up for an otherwise humdrum opening of a decidedly downscale store? Take a page from Steve Jobs’ book and create a artificial shortage of Apple (AAPL) iPhones.
In a press release rendered almost unreadable for all the copyright symbols and exclamation points, 99¢ Only Stores announced today that is unloading some of the less-popular 4-gig iPhones on a first-come-first served basis. Here’s the pitch:
COMMERCE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–99¢ Only Stores® invites all to join in celebrating our 25th anniversary! On Thursday, August 9th, 2007, make sure to be one of the first nine in line. That lucky group of shoppers will be able to purchase one innovative Apple 4GB iPhone for just 99¢ only! The next 99 customers can purchase a scooter for 99¢ only at the ribbon-cutting 25th anniversary celebration of our first store located in Westchester, CA.
Join 99¢ Only Stores® founder and chairman, Dave Gold and his wife, Sherry Gold, along with our very first customer and employees who have been with the company since 1982.
Invitees include Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and Tyra Banks. (link)
[Press release reading tip: just because the Governator et al. are invited, doesn't mean they'll come.]
But it’s sure to be a madhouse nonetheless. "We smell trouble," says MacDailyNews (which provided the link). "We hope they have facilities available."

A team of intrepid developers appear to have developed their own native GUI iPhone application. Called MobileTerminal, it emulates a command-line environment on the iPhone. Details are a little sketchy at present, but the team’s Google Code page says: “MobileTerminal.app is NOT an SSH client, nor Telnet for that matter. It can however be used to execute a console ssh-client application.” I’m not precisely sure if this is to the iPhone as Terminal is to Mac OS X, allowing full access to programs and the file structure, but it appears that it might, which has some very exciting potentials for future development.
Of course, for the average user, the hurdle is still the program’s installation. You’ll need to download the app (or build it from source yourself, if you’re feeling tech savvy), then use the Jailbreak application to drop it into the iPhone’s Applications directory. Supposedly, that’s all that’s needed: at that point, the app will show up on the iPhone’s home screen, and you can run it from there.
As always, you hack your iPhone at your own risk: there’s a good chance subsequent software updates from Apple will either remove or refuse to work with these alterations. But if you give it a try, let us know how the results are.
