Sorry for the break…

iToner updated to support iPhone 1.1.1
Ambrosia Software has updated iToner to v1.0.3. The new version is now compatible with iPhone firmware v1.1.1. I downloaded the updated software and it works flawlessly. I’ve got to say that custom ringtones was the feature I missed the most after I updated to iPhone firmware v.1.1.1. Kudos to Abrosia Software. The $15 cost of […]
Ranting about iPhone firmware v1.1.1
So, many of us updated our iPhone’s firmware to v1.1.1. A few of us (thank God, not me), bricked our iPhones. And then there are those that stayed on 1.0.2. I’ve got to say that I do appreciate some of Apple’s enhancements. The double-press of the home button is a time saver. As is double-space […]
AppTap (installer.app) breaks with iPhone firmware 1.1.1
This was also anticipated. Updating your iPhone with the latest firmware performs a restore and wipes out installer.app and any non-Apple applications. I’m sure this too will be corrected in a day or two. There is one thing that I’m curious about. Are all these non-Apple applications and ringtones still taking up space on our […]
iPhone Firmware 1.1.1 breaks iToner
As expected, Apple has closed up an exploit that Ambrosia Software was was taking advantage of in iToner to copy over ringtones.

Letter to iPhone Owners from Steve Jobs – I’ll give you $100
Apple CEO, Steve Jobs writes in this letter on Apple’s website: “…we need to do a better job taking care of our early iPhone customers as we aggressively go after new ones with a lower price. Our early customers trusted us, and we must live up to that trust with our actions in moments like […]
How to get your $200 credit for your iPhone
With all the buzz surrounding the $200 price drop and existing iPhone owners (include me in that list), feeling they deserved some sort of compensation, I decided to try a couple of different avenues that I’ve heard were successful for others. First, I called AT&T customer care and was kindly told that they would only […]
