Looking at my domain portfolio today, I realized that I had a few domains that are currently not in use. Then one popped out at me when I noticed the potential of the name: MyFreeiPhone3G.com. But because of the busy guy that I already am I know that I won’t be able to create another site or even manage one. So that’s why I’m putting the domain on auction. Here. On Slyvisions. If you want the domain read on!
Rules are easy. The domain up for auction is:
MyFreeiPhone3G.com
The domain is perfect for anything related to giving away free iPhone 3G’s, or even freebie sites (or just get it for resale later). You need to have a PayPal account (for payment just in case you win). To place your bid, just do so in the comments section below. Starting bid is at $5. Bid increments are $1. Lastly, the auction ends on Friday at 11:59 PM Eastern, August 8, 2008. Happy bidding!
The iPhone Pwnage Tool is now released! It’s not an official release with an official announcement, but the iPhone dev-team just wanted to get the tool out there. Go ahead and read more about it here.
If you downloaded all the files needed to get started, check out these useful guides to help you get started on “pwning” your iPhone/iPod Touch.
As you are in the process of pwning your device and come into a problem, make sure to read the comments from the blog entry of the iPhone Dev team. You can also check the forums from ModMyiFone. Other than that, have fun with your new “pwned” 2.0 iPhone/iPod Touch!
The iPhone Dev-Team has finally scheduled a time of the new Pwnage Tool release! A few minutes ago, the Dev-Team posted a new blog entry titled “Sundays”. What was the body of the entry?
We love sundays. We think you will too.
For those of you who don’t know, the new Pwnage Tool is suppose to be the god of all iPhone activating/jailbreaking/unlocking softwares. With this tool, 1st-gen iPhone owners will be able to activate, jailbreak, AND, unlock their phones WITH the 2.0 update. Meanwhile, iPhone 3G owners will only be able to activate and jailbreak their phones… no unlocking (yet).
So now let’s just sit back and relax until the next Sunday ticks closer to our life. There’s no doubt that the Pwnage Tool 2.0 release will create a big buzz all over the internet very soon. I just can’t wait until I see the magic this thing will do to my recently bought iPhone.
If you blog through Wordpress, it’s time for an upgrade! The new Wordpress 2.6, called “Tyner”, is now available with new cool features. Instead of listing them out to you, just watch this video below created by the Wordpress team themselves. Don’t forget to upgrade!
So it’s been over a week since I posted anything. Where have I been? Well, I’ve been living my life. But I guess you’re wondering why I haven’t been updating Slyvisions lately. The simple reason is (other than living my life) that I’ve been busy trying to get myself an iPhone from eBay. I know, I know, with all this iPhone madness, I must be the 1263423435th person to talk about this subject. But the thing is, I’m not trying to get the new iPhone 3G… I’m trying to get the 1st-gen iPhone (and recently just won an auction on eBay!).
Ok, so why did I “waste” my money on the first iPhone instead of getting the new one? To tell you the truth, the only reason major difference between the two phones is that the 3G iPhone is faster and has GPS capability. But I don’t have a contract with AT&T anyway and don’t plan to have one. What I do plan on doing is unlocking and “jailbreaking” my phone so that I can use it with my current SIM card. So the speed of the phone is already out of the question. GPS? Well, I actually love the GPS feature on the iPhone, but I already have a real GPS that is actually getting reception from a satellite.
The real big deal is the new firmware 2.0 update for the iPhone and iPod Touch. With all the cool applications you can download, the iPhone/iPod Touch can finally be what they were suppose to be in the first place. Some of you might be saying, “Oh I already have a ‘jailbroken’ iPhone/iPod Touch with hundreds of apps that I can download. I don’t need the 2.0 update”. That’s what I had said too at the beginning. But let me tell you something… the 2.0 update looks very promising and I think the apps from the App Store overpowers the apps from a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch. Or wait… did you know that you can soon have both an unlocked/jailbroken iPhone WITH the 2.0 update? More on that later.

Tim Ferris from the 4 Hour Workweek (great blog by the way… I still need to get the book) had recently just posted up a video on how to “peel” hard-boiled eggs without having to, well, peel the eggs. Basically, he shows you how to remove the outer-shell of the egg without actually having to go through all the hassle of peeling. Check it out:
