They restrict apps that duplicate functionality found in the stock Apple apps. Nobody can release another web browser, etc. At least through ITMS. It purplera1ned all over my 3gs 2 nights ago, and I'm very happy with the results.
I'm sure the drag related tech isn't the only useful stuff they found in the plans. They're probably using them to supe up their own rigs, as well as get a better understanding of OUR drone's radar footprint, etc.
..or he makes sure the cops aren't involved by shooting/stabbing you asap.
Yeah, I had so many friends that would sleep their laptops instead of shutting the down without knowing it, and they'd always be asking WhyTF their laptops were dead. Great lolz.
...but they don't allow arbitrary code execution. They only run the game rom. Apple is worried that people can install a C64 emulator and use it an another JB vector, etc.
Dude, just jailbreak, already. How can you be a
Jailbreaking doesn't void anything. I bought a 3G 2 weeks before the 'new model' was 'leaked', and broke it within an hour. Then 2 days before my 30 day 'tryout' was over, I backed it all up, restored it to default non-jailbroken firmware, and returned it 'because it sucked'. Then I went back to the store to preorder the day the 3GS was announced.
My 3GS will be here in a few days, and it gets broken immediately as well. You're missing out on so much good stuff.
You could prevent the lock screen from showing private sms and call data, tethering works over usb or ad-hoc wifi, springjumps+iblank rocks. my home screen icons all jumped to pages of categories laid out how I wanted them, different keyboard layouts (iTypeFastR, BB Storm, etc), being able to install themes/ringtones, BossPrefs, Folders to hide pron! (or password lists, etc.), Docs, NES, SNES4iPhone. I was 1/2 done with Link to The Past on my iPhone when I had to take it back.
Wow, I can'e believe nobody else got this.. Guess none of the real linux geeks are in the Mac threads.
but Palm's Pre is programmed to claim that it's an 'Apple iPod'. Is there anything legally wrong with that, such as using one of Apple's trade marks, etc??
... and can't Apple do sneaky stuff like looking at the contents of this mass storage? A brand new (or restored through iTunes) iPod will have a directory structure that I don't exactly see the Pre completely replicating.
Hell, they could even checksum the firmware partition to make sure it's got official Apple firmware, although that would probably leave a jail-broken iPhone or iPod Touch as a pretty expensive paperweight.
Because they don't need to. They sell upgrades for the people running older systems that would like to upgrade to the newest OS.
And the 'upgrade' versions will do a format and full install, an in-place upgrade, or an archive-and-install.
And it doesn't even bother you for a registration key, like some OS's.
