iPhone 3GS unlock available on Mac OS X
George Hotz was the first to release a jailbreak app for the iPhone 3GS -- the only problem was that it was only available for Windows. Now there's a Mac-based jailbreak solution for the 3GS, Purplera1n RC2a has been released for the Mac. iPhoneHacks.com has posted a detailed step-by-step of the process. If simply jailbreaking your iPhone isn't enough and you feel compelled to unlock your shiny new iPhone 3GS too, there's an app for that. If you've jailbroken via Purplera1n RC2a you can use the iPhone Dev Team's UltraSn0w to unlock an iPhone 3GS (video).
AT&T revises iPhone upgrade eligibility policy
In an open letter (and accompanying YouTube video, natch) posted today, AT&T revised its policy on upgrade eligibility for the new iPhone 3GS for a small number of iPhone 3G customers. I previously blogged about the lack or rhyme or reason to AT&T's seemingly random iPhone 3GS upgrade eligibility policy. Before today most iPhone 3G owners that purchased their phone on or around launch day (in July 2008) had to pay a $200 "early upgrade" penalty (read: $399/$499) to get the iPhone 3GS on Friday. AppleInsider clarified things slightly saying "iPhone customers who spend more than $99 a month per line are generally eligible for an upgrade between 12 and 18 months into their contract." All that changed today when AT&T changed its ...

Signs of iPhone growing pains at Apple’s WWDC?
Programmers are finally unpacking their gear after last week's Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco and blogging about the experience. Some noticed rough edges in the community. Or even sharp edges. The divide between longtime Mac developers and the iPhone newcomers was noted by Neven Morgan, the iPhone developer of OneTrip and Quip, the daily quotes machine. In a blog post, he said that the success of the iPhone could cause some dissension in the family. The tension was more noticeable this year than the last. I really hope the divide between Mac-only developers and those who have newly arrived to the OS X platform via iPhone doesn t become a troubling community issue. I understand why a desktop-centric veteran of ...
