Horray for multitasking, folders, digital camera zoom, messages searching and wallpapers ^_^ (and tons more i can’t wait to explore)

the dev-team really were quick to draw this time around. just after a few hours when iOS was released, we already have redsnow 9.5 which can “hacktivate” (or jailbreak) any iPhone3G or iPod Touch 2G, unfortunately no unlock yet folks. But I have a feeling we will “soon” have this (i think)

Download links for redsn0w 0.9.5b5-3 below:

WARNING: For now, the redsn0w beta release supports only the iPhone3G and iPod Touch 2G at today’s 4.0. It’s still a beta, so you’ll need to let Cydia reorganize, reload, and update after using redsn0w.

Its fairly easy to use. I wont bother putting a tutorial in. If you know how to use a computer (Windows/OSX) you can use this.

There are rumors circulating around that the next gen iPhone will be out this year (July 17th). Hmmmm, too bad for people like me who are still locked on my 2nd Gen iPhone for 1 and 1/2 year (Globe Telecom). I guess, next time i’ll get the “plan-free” package (if my wife lets me)…. or i buy one and just hide it from her.

Some features worth mentioning:

  • 32GB and 16GB storage (up from the current 16GB and 8GB models)
  • $199 and $299 price points to be maintained
  • 3.2-megapixel camera (up from the current 2-megapixel camera)
  • Video-recording and editing capabilities
  • Ability to send a picture & video via MMS
  • Discontinuation of the metal band surrounding the edge of the device
  • OLED screen
  • 1.5 times the battery life of the current models
  • Double the RAM and processing power
  • Built-in FM transmitter
  • Apple logo on back will glow
  • Rubber-tread backing
  • Sleeker design
  • Built-in compass
  • The camera, GPS, compass and Google map combined will identify photo and inform about photo locations
  • Turn-by-turn directions
