Jailbreak iOS 4.3.1 on OS X or Windows with PwnageTool or Sn0wbreeze
A
jailbreak of iOS 4.3.1 is now possible with both PwnageTool on Mac,
and Sn0wbreeze on Windows. RedmondPie -- who else? -- has some
handy guides that you can follow for all iOS 4.3.1 devices on Windows, for iPhone 4 on OS X, iPad 1 on OS X, iPhone 3GS on OS X, and iPod touch 4G and 3G on OS X.All iOS 4.3.1 jailbreaks are still tethered, meaning you'll have to jailbreak your device after every reboot. An untethered jailbreak is slated for release sometime in the next week -- but 4.3 was meant to have an untether, too, and that never emerged.
Maybe Apple's updated security mechanisms will finally keep hackers at bay!

NVIDIA NUANCE COMMUNICA...Encryption on the Go, Part 1
The growth of the
bring-your-own-device trend, in which employees use their personal
devices in the workplace, is proving to be a huge headache for IT.
Often underfunded, understaffed and overworked, IT now has to cope
with a plethora of different devices running different operating
systems -- or different versions of an operating system. These
devices often contain sensitive enterprise material and are
basically not secured. That has led to a flood of vendors offering
mobile device management and mobile security products.

Some
of you who own Windows Phone 7 devices are still waiting for your

New iPad Quad Core Graphics
Prior to the unveiling of
the new iPad 3, there was a lot of speculation and rumors about
what processor would be on board and what features the new
tablet. The older iPad 2 came with an A5 processor which included
a dual core graphics processor and 512mb of RAM. The graphics
processor takes care of all the display functions whilst the main
processor handles all of the other functions. A lot of the rumors
prior to the new iPad coming out centered around what processor
it would have and an “A6″ processor was mooted a lot, with
suggestions that it would feature both a quad core CPU and a quad
core graphics processor as well, in addition to more memory.
Editor's desk: Flashy thing me. Please.
This week started off with me begging for a good, Men in Black-style, neuralyzation but ended up with a ton of great stuff. Any coincidence we're heading into the biggest Apple event of the year? Of course not. Let's check the hot sheets....
Dumb Apple stuff, redux
Let's start off with two of a hundred memories I don't want.
The first was an article listing 7 things Apple CEO Tim Cook might do at the D10 conference that no self respecting Apple journalist, much less one of the biggest tech sites on the internet, would ever legitimately imagine him doing. When even well-informed readers know there's no chance Tim Cook will whip out the next iPhone or iPad Mini or an Apple Television, and they know the writer/editor knows that, what's the point in doing it?
The second listed a series of supposedly recent moves by Apple that would cause their late co-founder and CEO, Steve Jobs, to "roll-over in his grave". Other factually challenged content not withstanding, the list contained numerous...SOEmote brings your facial expressions to EverQuest II, lets fellow gamers know when you stub your toe
So, you love you some EverQuest II, but how much of you is really in that Ogre character of yours? Sony Online Entertainment has unveiled a new way let players put a bit more of their own personal stamp on the game, in the form of the SOEmote. The new feature, unveiled a few days ahead of E3, uses a computer camera to track facial movements, bringing player expressions to the characters themselves. Also new are voice fonts, allowing players to tailor the timbre of their speech, so your character can sound a bit more like the killer in Scream, just as you've always imagined.

ASUS reveals TAICHI convertible notebook / tablet with dual 11.6-inch and 13.3-inch displays (update: hands-on photos and video)
Two displays in one tablet? Yes you can. ASUS' new TAICHI series packs displays on both the front and the rear, letting you use the device in a variety of configurations. In 'notebook' mode, you can use TAICHI with a backlit QWERTY keyboard and trackpad. Once you close the lid, however, it's stylus time. TAICHI includes Intel Ivy Bridge Core i7 processors, 4 gigs of RAM, SSD storage, dual-band 802.11n WiFi, FHD/Super IPS+ displays and, naturally, dual cameras. Despite the display duo, both the 11.6-inch and 13.3-inch configurations are reportedly as thin and light as the Zenbook line. Both variants will offer 1900 x 1280 pixels on each side, and displays can be used independently, so you can even share the device with a friend -- with completely different content on each LCD.
We spent a few minutes with the 11.6-inch version at ASUS' launch event at Computex today, and while the device we saw was clearly an early prototype, it functioned as described and looked quite polished, so thi...Amazon Appstore for Android Test Drive hands on: surprisingly cool, but still US-only
When Amazon Appstore for Android launched last week,
one of its primary features -- Test Drive -- was disabled just a
few minutes after it opened. With no try-before-you-buy, no refund
process, and 1-Click purchasing ready to strike at any moment, this
caused some problems. Anyway, don't despair: Test Drive is now
enabled.Before you get your hopes up, Test Drive doesn't work with every app. The IMDb app works fine -- you can even watch movie trailers on it! -- but the Angry Birds games are sadly not enabled. Some games work surprisingly well, though, like Bubble Buster. There's very little latency, and the framerate is really rather good. The Test Drive experience is so true to life that you even get ads; how cool is that?

Wladimir Palant, developer of the most popular add-on in the world,
Adblock Plus, is also an active contributor to the Planet Mozilla blog
community. Over the last few days, in response to Mozilla's new
name and shame list of slow add-ons, Palant has
been investigating whether Mozilla's testing methods are actually
accurate.Rather surprisingly, it turns out that Mozilla's numbers could be significantly wrong -- and if they're not wrong, the factors that Mozilla uses to tabulate an add-ons final score should definitely be made more transparent.
In the first set of tests, Palant shows that FlashGot's position in the top 10 is probably due to a fault in Mozilla's testing setup, and that add-ons can perform very differently depending on which operating system they're being tested on. In the second analysis, Palant uncovers an irregularity that doesn't seem to have an obvious cause -- but it could be due to an I/O bottleneck on Mozilla's test machines. Basically, even though performan...
Mozilla Messaging reintegrates with Labs, unifies focus on Web-based communication
Mozilla
Messaging, citing Mozilla's increased focus on Web-borne
communications, will be reintegrating with Mozilla Labs.The Messaging subsidiary was formed in 2008 to focus on Thunderbird, but given Mozilla Labs' current focus on identity and contact management, it now makes sense for the groups to be merged. Thunderbird will be unaffected by the change -- some URLs might change, but that's it -- and presumably Messaging's F1 and Raindrop will thrive in the Labs playground.
What this means for the end user -- for the hundreds of millions of Firefox users -- is that the next big additions will be communication- and messaging-oriented. Contacts and F1 will be almost certainly be baked into Firefox 5 or 6, both of which will be released this year -- and, who knows, there might be something else even more exciting up Mozilla Labs' sleeve!

Google Chrome and Chromium add protection against malicious downloads
Google Chrome already sports a number of security-minded features,
from Incognito mode to a software sandbox which makes exploiting
the browser a Herculean task. Now, Google has announced additional
protection for Chromium and Chrome users.Built upon the Safe Browsing API, the new feature introduces protection against malicious downloads. If a download link appears in the Safe Browsing blacklist, Chrome and Chromium will warn users against downloading -- a save button is still presented, of course, in case you're convinced a file is perfectly safe to download.
We'd like to see something a bit more eye-catching than the red warning icon -- like perhaps painting the entire bar red. Many of the people a feature like this aims to protect probably won't notice the icon or change in wording as they'll be focused on clicking the save button.
Google is initially making download protection available to Chrome dev channel users, and you'll likely see it in Canary and Chromium snapshot bui...
