The Dev-Team is working hard on creating the first unlock and jailbreak tools for the iPhone 4. The new device was released a couple of weeks ago, but the jailbreak community is already active in development of new tweaks and ways to bypass Apple’s restrictions.

Such great videos going around on the internet today. This one is a stop-motion video shoot by TechRestore: an iPhone 4 gets unboxed, then pulled apart. Check it out after the break.
The iPod Touch Video Wall
Imagine 12 iPod Touches hooked up all together to create an Apple-powered video wall. Imagine a clock and some kind of a movie running on it.
I want the iPad version now.
Beyonce Portrait Painted with Brushes for iPad [Video]
Remember the most impressive Brushes speed painting you’ve ever seen? Well, this one is pretty good too. Kyle Lambert, the author, says:
“My artwork combines traditional painting techniques with cutting edge technology to produce rich, realistic portraits and character based concepts and designs. The iPad expands the possibilities for artists like myself to take digital artwork creation away from the computer and out into the world.”

My Newspaper: Your Own Google Reader Newsstand
So, reading on the iPad. The iPad is the perfect device to read, and we said it many times before. You’ve probably grown tired of hearing this story. The thing is, the device is so young and the opportunities in the App Store so big we can’t help but telling this story every time a new app comes out. And if the app is about catching up with news posted on your favorite blogs, I think you can understand us.
My Newspaper offers a new, fresh take on Google Reader, tailored to users who don’t need to refresh G. Reader every 2 minutes but want to sit down and enjoy some good content instead.

Nintendo: “We won’t produce software for iOS”
Many think that Nintendo should start developing games for the App Store, instead of focusing on challenging Apple. I’m one of those too, mainly because I’d love to have some Super Mario on my new iPhone.
Still, it’s not going to happen.
PadSync: Your Central Hub for iPad & iPhone Sync
The iPad introduced support for document sync across your computer and apps on the device using iTunes as a platform to communicate between databases (Pages, Numbers, GoodReader etc.) and the files on your computer. The process is slow and very un-Apple in my opinion, considering that you have to plug in the device, fire up iTunes (which is slow), wait for an initial sync, move to the Apps tab, choose the app, drag & drop and then sync again.
Also, there’s no sync between documents: iTunes doesn’t automatically replace files on your Mac with the you edited on your iPad, it just copies them. You can’t carry along the same document and hope for some kind of sync, though that would be great and it’s certainly coming to MobileMe or iWork.com sometimes in the future.
So, we’re stuck with drag & drop in iTunes. Fortunately for us, there are some 3rd party applications that are coming out and promise to change the way you move documents between your desktop and tablet (and iPhone, too) and today I’m taking a look at one of them, PadSync.
