Or so we think. I’ve been checking out this video on Gizmodo of the apparent v1.1.3 iPhone firmware update that Apple should be releasing soon. The video shows a guy moving around the iPhone’s icons changing the order. Apparently the updated firmware version breaks all unlocks, and jailbreak apps, and cannot be cracked this time around because iTunes installs Apple’s private key.
Hit the cut to read why I think the video is fake, and indeed does not show the real v1.1.3.

Look beyond the badly PhotoShop’d image and the Apple Newton revival gains further momentum with Seeking Alpha’s David Sieger piling together his evidence for an ultraportable device built around a 5.2-inch touchscreen.ĂâĂ Supposedly based on an image of a larger-than-iPhone unit with a “distinguishing button or depression on each side” as seen by “trusted tipster”, the device is intended to be held horizontally rather than vertically and is suggested to be using a MultiTouch-enabled 800 x 480 display provided by Balda and Wintek.

All phones have their positives, and all phones have their negatives. The iPhoneĂâĂ excelsĂâĂ in many areas other phones don’t, but other phones have some things the iPhone just couldn’t stand up to. There are things I really dislike about the iPhone, and these dislikes are small compared to everything I do enjoy about owning an iPhone. I may have some issues with my phone that I don’t know about, or it may just be me.
Hit the cut for my dislikes on the iPhone.

First we had NES, then we had GBA, now we have PS1 emulation on the iPhone and iPod touch. Opening up the iPhone to PS1 really shows the iPhone’s gaming capabilities. While still needed to beĂâĂ optimizedĂâĂ to run faster, I guess you could play a game. It’s only about 10-15FPS right now, but as we saw from the other emulators, after time we eventually obtained playable FPS rates on most games.ĂâĂ ĂâĂÂ

If you happen to live in a very cold area within the United States, don’t bother using the weather application on your iPhone. The weather application does not display negative Fahrenheit temperatures and just replaces them with 0F. If you’re using Celsius, the application for some reason displays negative temperatures. This was pointed out by a person in Alaska who posted on the Apple discussion boards.
I live in Alaska. The temps here have all been below zero F or more than -18C but the weather reported on the iPhone never goes below zero F. right now it is -13F and going to Yahoo says this but the iPhone shows 0F.
