Comment Re:iPad vs. all Android tablets (Score 1) 584

Which I have happen all the time with my Iphone 3G, I have had apps that had to be removed because I updated to OS and they stopped working. I reverted my OS and was able to use the apps again, so now I'm stuck back at the factory installed firmware because otherwise I lose apps I paid for. Not to mention each update makes my whole phone slower and feel a lot more sluggish

It is in fact a "safety inspection". I believe they do need a warrant to get into your home unless you let them in, I don't know if the would need extra evidence to get the warrant or not. here is a link. BCLocalNews. There is also a $5200 that can be charged to you regardless of if you have a grow op or not, though it is not always charged. here is another link Globe&Mail

Apple Quietly Drops iOS Jailbreak Detection API 164

bednarz writes "Without explanation, Apple has disabled a jailbreak detection API in iOS, less than six months after introducing it. Device management vendors say the reasons for the decision are a mystery, but insist they can use alternatives to discover if an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad has been modified so it can load and alter applications outside of Apple's iTunes-based App Store."

They are hot-plugable on any system if you want to risk killing your ps/2 controller. As the poster right above you pointed out Wikipedia PS/2. Having said that I hot-plug them all the time and have only killed a couple ports. Those that do die I grab a USB keyboard and voila they are back up and running.
