Just a little correction - Verizon isn't 850Mhz everywhere. It depends on who they bought out in the area or what licenses they were granted. In Wisconsin they're 1900Mhz (well, at least in the non-Alltel areas - not sure about those).

It looks like Dell only released the parts that they're required to under the GPL - so the summary is wrong in saying they released the "total custom Android 1.6 ROM". However, the kernel alone should hopefully help get some custom ROMs started on this thing.

Apple DMCAs iPodHash Project 453

Posted by timothy on Thursday November 20, 2008 @04:18PM from the if-google-is-a-verb dept.

TRS-80 writes "Apple has sent a DMCA takedown notice to the IpodHash project, claiming it circumvents their FairPlay DRM scheme. Some background: Apple first added a hash to the iTunesDB file in 6th-gen iPods, but it was quickly reverse-engineered. They changed it with the release of iPhone 2.0 and a project was started to reverse the new hash, but wasn't successful yet. My guess is Apple used the same algorithm as FairPlay for the new hash, so Apple could use the DMCA to prevent competing apps like Songbird and Banshee from talking to iPods/iPhones. BTW, don't tell Apple, but the project uses a wiki, so the old page versions from before the takedown are still there."
