MuscleNerd has announced on Twitter that the iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak will be untethered by Christmas. Currently, when jailbreaking the latest iOS, you need to tether your iPhone to a computer when you switch off the phone and want to restart it. By making it untethered, it solves that problem.
Tethered boot is often a problem that stops people from wanting to Jailbreak as the hassle of being next to a computer to boot your phone can be lead to frustration. [click to continue…]

We just mentioned some details about the iPad 2 getting cameras. We now hear that the 9.7 inch screen will not be OLED as rumored before. Of course, this is just another rumor to tackle the previous rumor which said it would. The reason that the iPad 2 display wont be OLED is apparently because of Samsung Mobile Display not being able to manufacture enough of them in time for the iPad 2 release date.
Samsung Mobile Display have about 98% market share of OLED panels and as Apple needs millions of them making any time now, this just isn't going to happen. [click to continue…]
