			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Embed Album Art in iTunes for Windows<br />
We&#8217;ve talked about what it means to &#8220;embed&#8221; album art in iTunes before, but never had a solution for Windows. Saad finds one for us:</p>
<p>This script embeds all artwork to the music files.</p>
<p>Open up cmd and type cscript &#8220;path/to/vbs/script&#8221;, hit Enter, and choose your playlist (like &#8220;Music&#8221;).<br />
Hope this helps other people like me who love iTunes but can&#8217;t be bothered to individually embed.</p>
<p>This is particularly useful if you&#8217;re using iTunes to manage your library, but using something else to listen to music and want your album art to show up.</p>

<p>We see quite a few questions in our <a href="http://forum.tipb.com/jailbreak-forum/"><span style="color:#2971a7;">Jailbreak Forums</span></a> about jailbreak basics. So, we’ve decided to compile a master list of some basic jailbreak magic right here in one place. Hopefully this will help a lot of you beginner jailbreakers learn the ropes (and maybe even help some of you decide whether the leap to the jailbreak world has its advantages for you). We’ve included common jailbreak lingo, popular jailbreak apps and tools, and videos highlighting some awesome jailbreak utilities!</p>
<h2>Common ways to Jailbreak</h2>
<p>There are usually several ways to Jailbreak depending exactly when a new version of iOS is released, when a new exploit is found, and when new Jailbreaks are released. Some are one-button easy, others command-line complicated. Here are the latest and the simplest.</p>
<p>If you’re not sure, here’s how to find out <a href="http://www.tipb.com/2010/12/26/daily-tip-find-ios-software-baseband-version-running/"><span style="color:#2971a7;">which iOS software and iPhone modem firmware you’re running</span></a>.</p>
<h3>iOS 4.3.3 (AT&amp;T/GSM) Jailbreak (untethered)</h3>

</ul>
<h3>iOS 4.2.6 (Verizon) Jailbreak (untethered)</h3>

</ul>
<h2>Common Jailbreak Terms</h2>
<h3>Jailbreak</h3>
<p>The most obvious of all terms, but yet the most confused. Jailbreaking simply allows users to have access to certain core functionality that Apple doesn’t give us stock. A jailbreak also gives users access to applications Apple may have rejected via Cydia. It also allows custom loading of apps (on Android, loading applications yourself is referred to as side-loading, just as rooting is to Android, jailbreak is to iPhone). On the iPhone you can use the SSH method or use iPhone Explorer. Jailbreaking allows customization at its core meaning, but shouldn’t be confused with unlocking.</p>
<h3>Unlocking</h3>
<p>Unlocking your iPhone allows you to use it on any GSM carrier. Simply meaning, if you have an AT&amp;T iPhone, unlocking it will allow you to use it on T-Mobile USA or even Rogers Wireless in Canada by simply inserting a different SIM card. A lot of jailbreakers will unlock their iPhones not only to use on a different carrier, but to increase resale value. The unlock process can change from firmware to firmware but typically, you’ll need to jailbreak your phone and then install a program via Cydia like ultrasn0w or yellowsn0w, which will then unlock your iPhone.</p>
<h3>Cydia</h3>
<p>Apple has the App Store, jailbreakers have Cydia in addition to the default App Store. And if you want to be technical, Cydia was THE first App Store. It was available with iOS 1.x and allowed jailbreakers to download apps before the App Store even existed. Those who jailbroke their first generation iPhones on 1.x have seen several jailbreak ideas and concepts become parts of iOS. We would mention Rock here, but seeing as <a href="http://www.tipb.com/2010/09/11/cydia-acquires-rock-unifies-jailbreak-app-store/"><span style="color:#2971a7;">Cydia acquired Rock</span></a>, there’s probably no point now. Another term you may hear when it comes to Cydia is repos, or repositories. These are simply sources you add in the manage section. ModMyi and BigBoss are two of the largest. They are already added when you install Cydia. You are always welcome to add custom repos if you choose. I highly advise only adding repos from trusted sources. If you have a weird feeling about adding it, I’d probably pass.</p>
<p><span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://echofoxx.wordpress.com/2011/05/25/jailbreak-basics-everything-you-need-to-know-for-iphone-and-ipad/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/C8okOGT7zAA/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8okOGT7zAA"><span style="color:#2971a7;">YouTube Link</span></a></p>
<h3>Recovery Mode/DFU Mode</h3>
<p>Many people still confuse these two terms. They ARE different. There IS an easy way to tell which mode your phone is in. If your screen shows a connect to iTunes logo with a slide for emergency option, you are in recovery mode. If the slide for emergency option is not there and you only see the connect to iTunes logo, you are in DFU mode (DFU mode can also present as a blank screen as well).</p>
<span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://echofoxx.wordpress.com/2011/05/25/jailbreak-basics-everything-you-need-to-know-for-iphone-and-ipad/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/lrOzF-DE3wU/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span>
<p>The main difference between these two modes is what they will and won’t bypass for installs. Recovery mode will implement iBoot (basically a portion of the bootloader than runs an integrity check) which will not allow you to downgrade your device. DFU mode will still talk to iTunes but it bypasses iBoot which will then allow you to downgrade firmware. Most jailbreaks will require DFU mode for these reasons. To enter DFU mode, you will follow these steps:</p>
<ul>
<li>Turn off your iPhone</li>
<li>Hold down your power and home buttons</li>
<li>Release the power button when the Apple logo appears, but continue holding down the home button. You should be presented with a Connect to iTunes logo.</li>
<li>Plug in your phone and iTunes should yell at you and say you must restore the device before it can be used.</li>
</ul>
<h3>SHSH Blobs</h3>
<p>A lot of people ask about this one and why Cydia wants to save them. When you upgrade firmware in iTunes, you’ll see at the top when you start a restore “Verifying restore with Apple”. Apple only signs current firmware versions. If you accidentally upgrade and then try to downgrade, your restore will fail. SHSH blobs save you from this headache. It will basically give iTunes a fake hand to shake, which in turn, makes iTunes think your restore has been verified. This can be a life saver if you accidentally upgrade and need to downgrade. TinyUmbrella will save SHSH blobs to the Cydia server as well. I highly recommend saving your blobs for every firmware version in case you ever find yourself in this predicament. We have posted a guide on <a href="http://www.tipb.com/2010/10/28/save-shsh-blobs-tinyumbrella-jailbreak/"><span style="color:#2971a7;">how to save SHSH blobs via TinyUmbrella</span></a>.</p>
<h3>Baseband</h3>
<p>The baseband is essentially the part of your device that controls the antennae. This has everything to do with your service and signal. This is why most unlockers have to be extremely careful when upgrading. If the baseband changes, it can permanently keep them from achieving an unlock. This is the main reason most unlockers tend to favor PwnageTool. It creates a custom firmware bundle for you to upgrade to that doesn’t upgrade the baseband, only the main OS. If you are running on a legitimate carrier and don’t care about unlocking, the baseband it typically less of a concern. Wifi and Bluetooth don’t run on the baseband either, so iPod touch or iPad owners typically don’t have concerns when it comes to new baseband versions.</p>
<h3>Springboard</h3>
<p>On a desktop you have a desktop, on an iPhone you have a springboard. It’s basically the interface you constantly interact with. Another term you’ll come in contact with is respringing. This is basically the act of restarting the springboard. Some jailbreak apps you install will require you to do this. All changes in the appearance of your phone via Winterboard (explained below) will require a respring as well. It’s nothing more than refreshing your desktop on a computer.</p>
<h2>Common Jailbreak Utilities</h2>
<p> </p>
<h3>Winterboard</h3>
<p>A lot of people jailbreak for the ability to change the look of their iPhone. Enter Winterboard, which is a free download via Cydia. It’s a necessary utility to install themes and most customizations. Many veteran jailbreakers will remember the days of Summerboard as well. Winterboard took its place a few years back and improved upon several things. When you install a theme, all the components will show up in Winterboard. Depending upon how a theme developer decided to bundle their theme, you may have only one package in Winterboard, or you may have several. I personally prefer when developers separate theme elements. Since Winterboard works as a hierarchy, I can select a theme and if I don’t like the sounds, I can download a sound pack I “do” like and apply that in Winterboard. The key is to move it above the main theme so it overrides the sounds I don’t want. I highly suggest jailbreakers to become very familiar and comfortable with Winterboard. If you do, there is no limit to what you can do to your phone and you’ll be able to tweak and customize even the littlest details of your springboard.</p>
<p><span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://echofoxx.wordpress.com/2011/05/25/jailbreak-basics-everything-you-need-to-know-for-iphone-and-ipad/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/7RyUHoNxMks/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RyUHoNxMks"><span style="color:#2971a7;">YouTube Link</span></a></p>
<h3>SBSettings</h3>
<p>This free utility allows you to add quick toggles that will drop down onto your springboard. There are also several plug-ins and themes you can download for SBSettings as well. It’ll also allow you to hide icons you don’t want or use. This is especially useful for hiding stock apps you can’t uninstall. I hide the default weather and stock apps among others that are simply wasting space on my springboard. You’ll also be able to more closely keep tabs on your memory and running processes. This was extremely useful before multitasking. It’s still useful today for freeing up memory and seeing what may be eating through battery or slowing your phone down.</p>
<p><span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://echofoxx.wordpress.com/2011/05/25/jailbreak-basics-everything-you-need-to-know-for-iphone-and-ipad/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/N2HyZqecTlI/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2HyZqecTlI"><span style="color:#2971a7;">YouTube Link</span></a></p>
<h3>iWipeCache</h3>
<p>Prior to 3.x, iOS didn’t cache icons in a way that created issues. The problem now with 3.x and beyond is the way the file system caches icons. When you switch themes, sometimes you’ll notice certain icons don’t change or they stay stuck on the last theme you had active. Prior to iWipecache, you had to SSH into your phone and delete the cache in certain folders and respring. iWipecache simplifies this process and does it for you on the go. It’s a free utility and something I’d highly recommend to anyone who likes to change UI elements and themes frequently. If there is ever a time iWipeCache doesn’t work, especially under iOS 4.x, try going into Winterboard and toggling Summerboard mode on and off, then respringing. This seems force even the most stubborn icons to change.</p>
<h3>OpenSSH</h3>
<p>Open SSH is a utility that allows SSH access to your device. You can then use an SSH client to access your device’s main file system for editing. Simpler utilities now exist, such as iPhone explorer which you’ll download to your PC or Mac. When you plug your iPhone, iPod, or iPad in, it will bring up the file system and you can edit without SSH access. I recommend using a utility like iPhone explorer over SSH as it’s safer. SSH can open you up to hackers and give others access to your file system if you forget to disable it. SSH is also a huge battery hog. The only benefit is that you don’t have to have your phone plugged in to SSH. You must be plugged in to use a utility like iPhone explorer. If you decide to use the SSH option, make sure to change your iPhone root and user passwords. You can visit our <a href="http://forum.tipb.com/jailbreak-forum/"><span style="color:#2971a7;">Jailbreak Forums</span></a> if you need help doing this.</p>
<h3>Notification Replacement Apps</h3>
<p>There are more than a few choices when it comes to selecting a notification app. LockInfo, Intelliscreen, and Notified Pro are all acceptable selections. Most offer trials so it’s really up to personal preference. I’m a major fan of LockInfo and find it much more user friendly than Intelliscreen. Notified Pro has also been gaining some ground and continues to add many improvements as well. Since Apple has yet to improve upon their notification system, I highly suggest checking these out and implementing one of them. You’ll be happy you did. I’ve already posted a <a href="http://www.tipb.com/2010/11/03/lockinfo-iphone-tips-tricks-jailbreak/"><span style="color:#2971a7;">guide to setting up LockInfo</span></a> so be sure to check that out as well.</p>
<span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://echofoxx.wordpress.com/2011/05/25/jailbreak-basics-everything-you-need-to-know-for-iphone-and-ipad/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/mBKOecSWv-o/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span>
<h3>SMS Apps and Add-Ons</h3>
<p>There are many apps that improve SMS capabilities as well. I personally use BiteSMS but apps such as TLert and iRealSMS are more than acceptable candidates as well. QuickReply for SMS is also a good app but be warned that the developer has decided to not continue with it. It’s rumored to go free (if it hasn’t already). So if you’re okay with the current bugs and don’t expect updates, it may be an acceptable option for you. Most of these apps allow you to reply quickly to texts without it interrupting your work-flow. They’ll also allow you to create gestures on the springboard which will allow you to quickly send an SMS without ever leaving the current app you’re already in.</p>
<h3>MyWi</h3>
<p>Many users are left bitter when certain carriers want to charge them an additional fee just for the privilege of tethering. MyWi is a wonderful little app and in my opinion, a major reason to jailbreak on its own. MyWi alllows you to create a wifi hotspot with your iPhone. I have a wifi only iPad and I never even considered purchasing the 3G version. I simply tether my iPad to my iPhone. Just be wary of doing this if you don’t have an unlimited data plan. As of writing this, MyWi currently costs $19.99. It may seem like a hefty price tag but you’ll pay that in data and/or tethering fees in less than 2 months. You’ll only pay for MyWi once. You do the math.</p>
<h3>My3G</h3>
<p>Similar to MyWi, this app is a tweak that allows you to lift certain restrictions carriers and Apple have in place. It will allow you to trick your phone into thinking you have a wifi connection when you are really on the carrier network. This trick comes in handy if you need to download an app over 20MB and aren’t in range of wifi. It also allows you to use FaceTime over 3G as well. There is also another app called 3G Unrestrictor which will also allow you to make FaceTime calls over 3G.</p>

<p>The iPad 2 offers a number of exciting new features. Chief among them is the ability to capture video from the integrated cameras and edit them with the new iMovie for iOS 1.2. Unfortunately, the video camera on the iPad is better suited for FaceTime video calls than for capturing a child’s first steps, or similarly important moments, for posterity.</p>

<p>Thankfully, you can import video files captured from other devices, though compatibility is hit or miss. We haven’t had any luck importing files captured from Canon DSLRs, but we have had some success with Cisco&#8217;s Flip video cameras. If you have a Flip, here’s how it works.</p>
<h2>Step 1: Capture a movie</h2>
<div><img src="http://images.macworld.com/images/article/2011/03/flip-229832.jpg" alt="" width="188" height="255" /><br />
Cisco Flip camcorder</div>
<p>Use your Flip to shoot some video.</p>
<h2>Step 2: Connect your Flip to the iPad</h2>
<div><img src="http://images.macworld.com/images/article/2011/03/appleconnectionkit-229835.jpg" alt="" width="188" height="122" /><br />
Apple Camera Connection Kit</div>
<p>Pop out the Flip’s built-in USB connector and connect it to the iPad 2 using the Apple Camera Connection Kit’s USB adapter. Note: On the Flash Ultra HD Flip camcorder I used, I had to plug in a <em>powered</em> USB hub between the Flip and the Camera Connection Kit. The Flip Mino HD did not require a hub.</p>
<h2>Step 3: Import to Photos App</h2>
<p>Once the Flip is connected to the iPad, the Photos application will launch. A Camera tab will open and thumbnails of your Flip’s clips will load in the window. If you’d like to import all of the clips, immediately hit the blue Import button at the bottom of the screen. To select individual clips to import, simply tap the thumbnail image and a blue checkmark will appear on the thumbnail. After you’ve selected your clips, then tap the blue Import button at the bottom of the screen.</p>
<div><img src="http://images.macworld.com/images/article/2011/03/step-3-229841.jpg" alt="" width="386" height="515" /></div>
<p>The app will ask if you want to import all or just the selected clips. Make your choice, and the app will begin importing your images. When the iPad is done importing, Photos will ask if you’d like to delete the files from the camera. Speaking from prior experience, I recommend choosing Keep Files, and make sure that the movies or photos transferred successfully before deleting anything from the camera.</p>
<h2>Step 4: Launch iMovie</h2>
<div><img src="http://images.macworld.com/images/article/2011/03/imovie_ios_thumb_icon-228545.jpg" alt="" width="" height="" /></div>
<p>Tap the iMovie icon on your iPad. When the iMovie app opens, Tap the + (plus) icon at the bottom of the screen to start a new project.</p>
<h2>Step 5: Edit your video</h2>
<p>The video clip, as well as anything you’ve captured to the iPad or imported via syncing, will show up in the upper left hand side of the screen in a window called Video. Tap on the clip and a blue arrow appears, along with a yellow handle at each end of the clip. You can tap and drag the handles to select the section of the clip you want to bring onto your timeline and click the blue arrow to bring it into your project to edit. That&#8217;s it!</p>
<div><img src="http://images.macworld.com/images/article/2011/03/video-229843.jpg" alt="" width="386" height="197" /></div>

<p>Residents of SoCal&#8217;s Torrance should consider themselves lucky, as they&#8217;re now living in America&#8217;s first-ever city to have a pipelined <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/hydrogen+fuel+cell"><span style="color:#00bdf6;">hydrogen-fueling</span></a> station. You can thank Shell and Toyota for picking up this government-funded green project. Sure, while the few other hydrogen stations still rely on delivery by supply truck (presumably running on diesel, ironically), this nevertheless marks a new milestone for our squeaky clean fuel, and it&#8217;s only a matter of time before more stations get piped up to Air Products&#8217; hydrogen plants. If there&#8217;s any indication of a time frame, <em>Wired</em> reminds us that <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/16/13-japanese-companies-join-to-further-fuel-cell-adoption-also-p/"><span style="color:#00bdf6;">2015</span></a> should see the arrival of many new mass-market hydrogen cars from <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/09/would-you-buy-a-hydrogen-powered-sedan-in-2015-for-50-000/"><span style="color:#00bdf6;">Toyota</span></a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/07/honda-shows-off-conceptual-solar-powered-station-to-refill-your/"><span style="color:#00bdf6;">Honda</span></a>, and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/02/daimler-says-fuel-cell-vehicles-will-cost-the-same-as-diesel-hyb/"><span style="color:#00bdf6;">Mercedes-Benz</span></a>.

</ul>
<p>You can follow these step-by-step instructions to jailbreak your iPod Touch:</p>
<p><strong>Step 1: </strong>Download Redsn0w 0.9.6b4 by <a href="http://cdn.nspwn.com/redsn0w_win_0.9.6b4.zip" target="_blank">clicking here</a> and save the application in a folder named &#8220;<em>Pwnage</em>&#8221; on your desktop.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2: </strong>You need to download iOS 4.2.1 firmware file:</p>
<p><a href="http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone4/061-9855.20101122.Lrft6/iPod2,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore.ipsw" target="_blank">iOS 4.2.1 firmware file</a> for iPod Touch 2G users (iPod2,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore.ipsw)</p>

<p><strong>Step 7: </strong>Navigate back to the Pwnage folder and launch the Redsn0w application.</p>
<p><strong>Step 8: </strong>You will be asked to select the corresponding IPSW file. Click on the Browse button and select the iOS 4.2.1 firmware file (iPod Touch 4G users: iPod4,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore.ipsw, iPod Touch 3G users: iPod3,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore.ipsw, iPod Touch 2G users: iPod2,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore.ipsw).</p>

<p><strong>Step 9: </strong>Redsn0w will verify the firmware file and inform you if it has successfully identified it. Click on &#8216;<em>Next</em>&#8216; to proceed.</p>

<p><strong>Step 10:</strong> Redsn0w will now start preparing the jailbreak data.</p>

<p><strong>Step 11:</strong> You will now be prompted to select the jailbreak options you would like. A few of these may have already been selected by default. Make sure Cydia is selected and select &#8216;<em>Next</em>&#8216; to continue.</p>

<p><strong>Step 12:</strong> You will now be prompted to switch OFF your iPod Touch and plug it to the computer. Follow the instructions and click on &#8216;<em>Next</em>&#8216; to move to the next screen:</p>

<p><strong>Step 13:</strong> You will now need to put your iPod Touch into the DFU mode. Redsn0w will take you through the necessary steps:</p>
<p>(a) Hold the Power button on iPod Touch down for 3 seconds:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.iphonehacks.com/images/2010/12/ipod-touch-redsn0w-win-7.jpg" alt="Jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 - Redsn0w" border="0" /></p>
<p>(b) Now simultaneously hold the iPod Touch and keep the two buttons pressed for 10 seconds:</p>

<p>(c) Now release the Power button while keeping the Home button pressed until Redsn0w identifies the device:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.iphonehacks.com/images/2010/12/ipod-touch-redsn0w-win-9.jpg" alt="Jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 - Redsn0w" border="0" /> <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Step 14:</strong> Your iPod Touch should reboot now.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.iphonehacks.com/images/2010/12/ipod-touch-redsn0w-win-10.jpg" alt="Jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 - Redsn0w" border="0" /> <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Step 15:</strong> Redsn0w will now begin uploading the new RAM disk and kernel.</p>

<p><strong>Step 16:</strong> You will now be notified once the jailbreaking process is complete. Click on the &#8216;<em>Finish</em>&#8216; button to exit the application.</p>

<p><strong>Step 17:</strong> Your iPod Touch will reboot once again (which could take approximately 5 minutes). After it has rebooted, your iPod Touch should be successfully jailbroken. You should find <a href="http://www.iphonehacks.com/cydia-app-store/">Cydia</a> jailbreak app on your iPod Touch’s home screen.</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong></p>
<p>iPod Touch 4G and iPod Touch 3G users should select <em>Just boot tethered right now </em>from the options window and click <em>Next </em>to use Redsn0w to help you boot back into your jailbroken device on every reboot.</p>

Keep in mind &#8211; this is CDMA (hence why you&#8217;re not seeing Torch2 or apollo listed). Also means<br />
we could see GSM releases sooner than the CDMA timeline above&#8230; plus things often change from plan.</div>
<p>In the last couple of weeks we&#8217;ve learned a lot about RIM&#8217;s 2011  BlackBerry pipeline thanks to a handful of device leaks. After months  (and in some cases over a year) of speculation, we saw specs and  renderings show up for the <a href="http://www.crackberry.com/blackberry-dakota-pictured-and-specs-revealed-keyboard-touchscreen-hd-video-and-more">dakota</a> (touchscreen GSM Bold), <a href="http://www.crackberry.com/more-images-blackberry-dakota-apollo-and-torch-2-posted">monaco</a> (aka Storm 3, though possibly will not fall under Storm branding at launch), <a href="http://www.crackberry.com/blackberry-torch-2-details-emerge">Torch 2</a> and <a href="http://www.crackberry.com/blackberry-apollo-newest-member-curve-family-shows-us-what-its-made">apollo</a> (new curve). All that was followed by rumors of another Curve, <a href="http://www.crackberry.com/blackberry-sedona-rumors">sedona</a>.  Despite the windfall, what we&#8217;ve been looking at only told about 65% of  the story. Today, thanks to a whack load of CDMA carrier roadmap  slides, we can further fill in the gaps and clarify the codenames and  even product names of what&#8217;s coming up in 2011, including an entirely  new device that really hasn&#8217;t been <em>touched</em> on yet (Curve Touch!).</p>
<p><strong>Further BlackBerry Smartphone Roadmap Highlights and Clarifications </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>new BlackBerry Bold Touch: dakota is the GSM version, while montana is the CDMA version</li>
<li>next gen Curve: apollo is the GSM version, while sedona is the CDMA version</li>
<li>new Curve Touch: not previously mentioned, malibu is a new CDMA  touchscreen Curve (likely to be a GSM one in the works too of course)</li>
</ul>
<p>On the BlackBerry 6.1 front, beyond what we learned at <a href="http://www.crackberry.com/blackberry-6-1-application-platform-announced-devcon-asia">DevCon Asia</a>,  we can see some of the other goodies coming our way. Included in the  update is a faster user experience via &#8220;liquid graphics&#8221;, a faster web  browser experience (thanks to hardware acceleration and more mhz in the  new devices), more homescreen customization options and even  voice-activated universal search.</p>
<p>All in all, things are really starting to make sense and look good!  There&#8217;s plenty to look at below, so keep reading and be sure to sound  off in the comments with your thoughts!</p>

<p>While we recently saw information and photos leak to the net about the gsm BlackBerry <a href="http://www.crackberry.com/blackberry-dakota-pictured-and-specs-revealed-keyboard-touchscreen-hd-video-and-more">dakota</a>,  you can think of the BlackBerry montana as dakota&#8217;s CDMA sibling. With  both the montana and dakota likely to hit the market under BlackBerry  Bold Touch branding, this is RIM&#8217;s thinnest BlackBerry ever with premium  materials and finishes and a forged, machined stainless steel frame.  The BlackBerry Montana&#8217;s features and specs include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Dimensions: 155 x 66 x 10.5mm</li>
<li>Processor: Qualcomm 1.2GHz CPU</li>
<li>Radio: 800/1900 MHz EvDO Rev A with Receive Diversity (PCS Only);  Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE; Dual Band UMTS (HSPA 7.2/5.76) 900/2100MHz</li>
<li>Display: 2.8&#8243; diagonol &#8211; VGA 640 x 480, resolution 287dpi</li>
<li>Camera: 5mp &#8211; Flash &#8211; Image Stabilization &#8211; HD Recording (720p)</li>
<li>Navigation: Capacitive Touch, Optical Trackpad</li>
<li>Keypad: Wide QWERTY &#8211; Physical Send, End, Escape, Menu, Right Side Convenience Key, Volume Control</li>
<li>Memory: 8GB &#8211; 768MB RAM &#8211; up to 32GB MicroSd Crad</li>
<li>WiFi: 2.4 GHZ b/g/n &#8211; 5GHz a/n &#8211; Mobile Hotspot</li>
<li>Connectivity: Micro USB &#8211; Bluetooth &#8211; NFC</li>
<li>Sensors: Magnetometer &#8211; Accelerometer &#8211; Proximity</li>
</ul>
<p>All in all, if you like BlackBerry Smartphones with keyboards and are on a CDMA carrier, this will be the device to have!</p>

<p>Oh, hello. A trusted tipster just sent in these internal renders of HP / Palm&#8217;s <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/17/palms-tablet-is-codenamed-topaz-keyboard-accessory-leaks-out/">&#8220;Topaz&#8221; webOS tablet</a>, which is one of <em>two</em> tablets currently being developed in Sunnyvale. That&#8217;s right, two  tablets: the 9-inch Topaz and a 7-inch model codnamed Opal &#8212; a lineup  that fits nicely into Palm&#8217;s &#8220;Something big, Something small, Something  beyond&#8221; tagline for its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/04/hp-invites-press-to-an-exciting-webos-announcement-on-february/">upcoming February 9th event</a>. Looking at the render, we&#8217;re seeing the no-button design we&#8217;d <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/17/palms-tablet-is-codenamed-topaz-keyboard-accessory-leaks-out/">previously heard about</a> (we&#8217;re assuming the gesture area rotates with the display), a  front-facing camera, a micro USB port on the bottom, and what appears to  be a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/05/vizio-tablet-hands-on-preview/">Vizio Tablet-style</a> three speaker arrangement for stereo audio in both landscape and  portrait modes &#8212; that&#8217;s two speakers along the left side and a third on  the right. (That&#8217;s just a guess, though.) We&#8217;d also note the back  appears to be a glossy material, which might rule out a giant Touchstone  for charging &#8212; Touchstone backs have heretofore been soft-touch, but  anything can change, we suppose.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re told that units will start to arrive at Palm HQ in June as  production ramps up for launch later this year &#8212; a timeline backed up  by an internal marketing slide we received that lists WiFi-only,  AT&amp;T 3G, and Verizon LTE versions of the Opal arriving in September  2011, and on AT&amp;T LTE in July 2012. The slide also indicates the  Opal will have a particular e-reading focus, which makes sense for a  7-inch device, and there&#8217;s a mention of &#8220;premium audio,&#8221; which nicely  reinforces our speaker hypothesis. Unfortunately, we don&#8217;t have any word  on specs or pricing yet, but these things had better be packing some  serious heat for cheap if Palm is really planning to wait until  September to launch them &#8212; they&#8217;ll be going head-to-head with the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/05/motorola-xoom-becomes-official-on-motorola-site-joined-by-unann/">Xoom</a>, the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/06/blackberry-playbook-preview/">PlayBook</a>, and presumably the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/ipad2">iPad 2</a>. We&#8217;re still digging for more, so keep an eye out &#8212; things are <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/13/hps-todd-bradley-all-but-confirms-webos-tablet-for-february-9th/">going to get crazy</a> leading up to <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/04/hp-invites-press-to-an-exciting-webos-announcement-on-february/">February 9th</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> We&#8217;re told that they both have unspecified  1.2GHz processors, and that Topaz may arrive before Opal. We&#8217;ll let you  know if we learn anything else.</p>

<p>We love all the little goodies that come out of iOS developer builds.  It&#8217;s been only a day since 4.3 hit the scene and already we&#8217;ve seen  hints of future <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/12/ios-4-3-code-reveals-new-iphone-and-ipad-models-rumor-mill-sugg/">iPhone / iPad models</a>, a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/13/find-my-friends-mobileme-feature-revealed-in-ios-4-3-developer/">Find My Friends</a> feature, and now more hints of a camera for the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/ipad2">next iPad</a>. Which, of course, is far from the first time we&#8217;ve heard iPad and camera in the same utterance (<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/23/ipad-2-features-a-thinner-bezel-flat-back-and-wide-range-speak/">cases</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/06/ipad-2-mockup-teases-128gb-storage-exhibits-speaker-grille-wev/">mockups</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/ipad2,camera">paperwork</a>, even <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/iphone-os-4-0-beta-4-hints-at-led-flash-camera-for-ipad-ipod/">more code</a>). Today&#8217;s revelation comes in the form of shutter screens and camera / video icons care of <em>9 to 5 Mac</em>,  but here&#8217;s the catch: to believe these imagery to be the real thing is  to also accept that the iPad 2 might have the same 1024 x 768 display,  given that&#8217;s what these pictures are optimized for. You didn&#8217;t <em>really</em> believe the iPad 2 would have a 9.7-inch, 2530 x 1897 resolution retina  display&#8230; did you? Well, it&#8217;s only speculative, anyway.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.bgr.com/?p=73092"><img title="BlackBerry-2011" src="http://www-bgr-com.vimg.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/BlackBerry-2011.jpg" alt="" width="652" height="453" /></a></p>
<p>We unveiled nearly all of RIM’s 2011 lineup over the past day or so,  and we wanted to highlight the devices as well as give you a bit more  background and personal thoughts on them — and of course, more photos.  For starters, though, let’s talk about RIM’s NFC implementation and its  real world use cases… we have been told RIM is planning to use NFC for  pairing and streaming control with accessories, in addition to  peer-to-peer information exchange. What does that mean? Well, you’d hold  up one BlackBerry to another BlackBerry to add that person on  BlackBerry Messenger, transfer your vCard information, or even share  files. Future NFC uses headed to BlackBerry devices, we’re told, include  things as crazy as building access control (no more key cards!),  ticketing, and of course, payments. Hit the break for the rest of our  break down!</p>
<h2>BlackBerry Bold (Dakota)</h2>
<p><img title="BlackBerry-Dakota" src="http://www-bgr-com.vimg.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/BlackBerry-Dakota.jpg" alt="" width="629" height="597" /></p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/01/13/exclusive-blackberry-dakota-gets-pictured-the-touch-and-type-blackberry-youve-been-waiting-for/">BlackBerry Dakota</a> is the creme de la creme of the 2011 BlackBerry family, and it will  carry the Bold name. RIM has taken various shots at this form factor and  the Dakota will be the first one to see the light of day. We’re glad  the company took the time to get it right, because earlier prototypes  we’ve seen definitely fell short. The Torch is a great phone for some,  but those of us who live and die by the perfect QWERTY keyboard found on  RIM’s Bold line had trouble dealing with the thin plastic keys and  minimal tactile response on the Torch’s board.</p>
<p>Beyond the heaven-sent full QWERTY / touchscreen combo, the Dakota  will feature specs that are definitely a solid bump over today’s Bold  devices. By 2011 standards they’re not going to blow anyone away, but  higher display resolution, RAM upgrade, NFC, mobile hotspot capability  and thin form factor are sure to please the eager BlackBerry-toting  masses. Toss HD video recording and OS 6.1 into the mix, and we’re  looking at the likely king of Waterloo in 2011.</p>
<h2>BlackBerry Curve (Apollo)</h2>
<p><img title="BlackBerry-Apollo" src="http://www-bgr-com.vimg.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/BlackBerry-Apollo.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="485" /></p>
<p>The BlackBerry Curve sits lower than the Bold on RIM’s device lineup totem pole, but with <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/01/13/exclusive-next-generation-blackberry-curve-appears-brings-specs-with-it/">the newest Curve</a> ready to debut later this year, people will be in for a treat. With a  decent screen, HSPA, a 5-megapixel camera, and an 800MHz CPU, the brand  new BlackBerry Curve definitely won’t be a slouch. The styling flows  very well on the Curve pictured above with smooth angles and… curves.  The phone also appears sleek and perfectly proportioned. RIM’s Curve  line is by far its biggest, and we think this update will definitely  help keep RIM’s enterprise sales moving in the right direction.</p>
<h2>BlackBerry Torch 2</h2>
<p><img title="BlackBerry-Torch-2-large" src="http://www-bgr-com.vimg.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/BlackBerry-Torch-2-large.jpg" alt="" width="636" height="598" /></p>
<p>RIM called the first Torch its best BlackBerry ever, though many  would take issue with that statement. The Torch did nothing for me,  personally. In fact, all it really did was make using a BlackBerry  device more clunky and painful. Part of this is the hardware’s vertical  slide out design, but part of it was due to the slow processor and weak  internals. But if all goes according to plan, one of the Torch’s two big  strikes will soon be taken care of. The <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/01/13/exclusive-blackberry-torch-2-gets-detailed/">BlackBerry Torch 2</a> should scream with its 1.2GHz CPU, VGA-resolution screen and large  built-in storage. Again, these specs aren’t going to make anyone’s head  spin in Q3 2011, but they’ll definitely give the Torch the shot of  adrenaline it so desperately needs.</p>
<h2>BlackBerry Storm 3 (Monaco)</h2>
<p><img title="BlackBerry-Storm-3" src="http://www-bgr-com.vimg.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/BlackBerry-Storm-3.jpg" alt="" width="288" height="637" /></p>
<p>We have not confirmed that the BlackBerry Monaco will launch with the  “Storm 3″ moniker, though if it did, it would be practically nothing  like the first device in the series. The first BlackBerry Storm,  internally referred to as an “Apple Killer” and arguably one of the  worst handsets ever to created by Research In Motion (remember how we  reported it would be terrible before release?), shares nothing with the  upcoming <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/01/14/exclusive-blackberry-storm-3-shows-up-tells-all/">BlackBerry Storm 3</a> — no SurePress screen, no clunky hardware, no slow processor. This new  full touchscreen device will be powered by a 1.2GHz CPU and feature the  highest resolution display to ever ship on a BlackBerry — 800 x 480  pixels. We’ll have to see how it plays out in the marketplace, though,  because by the time it is released in Q3, there will be much, much more  advanced handsets with much more robust operating systems.</p>
<p>We hope you BlackBerry-lovers out there are excited with the  information we have shared over the past two days. RIM is definitely  moving towards better-spec’d devices — we’ll just have to see if it’s  going to be soon enough, and if it’s going to be enough to compete with  the iPhone and Android juggernauts</p>
