Features that iPad Should Have

iSight camera back and front. Isn’t it good if we were chatting on our favorite client with an iPad while on webcam
Mac OS X and a USB or FireWire port. So we could do whatever we want on it and treat it as a real full featured computer.

Apple unveils iPad

Apple unveils iPad

Just lately, Steve Jobs announced Apple’s iPad. I don’t like the name, honestly. For me it’s an oversized iPod Touch. But what I like about the iPad is that it supports 802.11n. Meaning, it surfs fast and it looks good. I have an Apple Extreme here, and I think it’s a good pair with iPad, it will be as fast as my laptop, and who doesn’t want multi-touch browsing experience.

About the pricing, I think it’s a bit expensive. It can’t even make phone calls. It has no USB port in it, unlike netbooks. Let’s say netbooks are slow and has low quality display but at least it can use devices such as webcams, computer mouse, and some other usb devices, and netbooks are way cheaper than iPad. At $829 (price of a 64gb WiFi+3G iPad), I could buy a brand new PC CPU with very decent graphic card, I could buy a new Macbook, I just have to add a hundred dollar more. I think it would be reasonable if they priced it $699.

Anyways, it’s a good product, it’s a bit better than netbooks. I just wish it had a Mac OS X instead of the iPhone OS.

Jailbreaking new iPhone 3G S

Last week, I just found out about the jailbreak proof iPhone 3G S. Three friends of mine asked me to jailbreak their new phones. So, I used blackra1n. After clicking “make it ra1n” the phone went to recovery mode, and it was on recovery mode for so long (made me nervous, because I haven’t backed [...]

I’m not so lucky on espresso machines

I’m not so lucky on espresso machines

Since last last year I decided to make my own espresso based coffees.
So I bought this Swift Espresso Cappuccino maker from Amazon. I chose this since this is the cheapest I’ve seen and it’s got good reviews and the other thing is, I’m just a beginner.

Blackra1n + Blacksn0w

Blackra1n + Blacksn0w

Just tried to jailbreak my mom’s iPhone. I’m very surprised that it’s so easy to use unlike Pwnage Tool and Redsn0w. On Pwnage Tool, you will have to restore your iPhone and find the specific firmware for it. Redsn0w does the same thing but there’s no need to restore your iPhone, while, Blackra1n is like [...]
