AnySim has always claimed to be open source from the start, but the devs had never released an official source code. After endless waiting, not only can the devs work on it, but hackers and programmers from all around the world can also work on it, greatly improving it’s code and compatibility with the iPhone.

Although 1.1.3 isn’t a major iPhone upgrade number such as 1.0 to 1.1, it is rumored that the iPhone may have some new features as soon as this weekend. New features may include voice recording, and a disk mode. Voice recording is something people really wanted and was made by Erica Sadun. The 1.1.3 would most likely completely void the use of Voice Notes and make people want to use Apple’s native version of the application. Hopefully disk mode will allow us to easily transfer over ROMs and other programs.

This week, Google released a new version of Maps including a new beta feature — My Location. My Location uses the same technology as Navizon’s GPS free positioning system. Using cell phone towers to locate your position provides your general location within 1000m. The application pinpoints your location, and puts a blue transparent circle around the location to show that you could be anywhere within that circle.

Back in July legal beavers looked at the Apple/AT&T contract you’re expected to agree to when you buy an iPhone, and came away scratching their heads and claiming it was so confusing that “most lawyers wouldn’t understand it”. One of the more suspect clauses gave Apple permission to monitor your iPhone in order to “verify compliance with the terms of this licence”; at the time we set aside most concerns that the company would be tracking your cellphone, but it seems as though Apple themselves may have been all to willing to flex their powers. Code hidden inside the Stocks and Weather apps on the iPhone appears to automatically send your IMEI to the company every time you refresh their information, which would give Apple both knowledge of what’s being looked at and by whom.
