Excerpt from pcworld:
“…Jailbreak your iPhone
Download and install QuickPwn, an easy-to-use jailbreaking application for Windows and Mac (the latest version works with iPhone OS 2.2.1). Run the software and follow the onscreen instruction very carefully!
Install iPhoneModem by Addition
QuickPwn installs an app on your phone called Cydia, which is essentially the App Store for apps that were rejected from the official App Store (or, for whatever reason, the developer chose not to release through Apple). Run Cydia, search for iPhoneModem by Addition and install it. Keep in mind you can only delete Cydia installed apps via Cydia’s Manage-Sources function. Now download and install the helper app on your laptop and you’re almost ready to go.
Set up the network
Run the helper app and hit Connect. The helper app sets up an ad hoc wireless network that can be accessed via iPhone. The default network it creates is called “iPhoneModem” and does not have a password (you can change this in the Preferences of the helper app). Now open up your iPhone’s Settings and tap WiFi. Make sure WiFi is turned on and select the network “iPhoneModem” (or whatever you called it). Type the password if you assigned one. Open up the Modem iPhone app and everything else will configure automatically. After a few moments the helper app and the iPhone app will confirm that a connection has been established and you can browse away with all the comforts of your laptop!
Shortcomings
While 3G seems plenty fast on a phone, it feels a little slow on a laptop. Also, most major web browsers work but not all are supported. In addition, a lot of other internet applications aren’t supported, but for all intents and purposes, you should be able to browse just fine….”

From AP:
“Nevada gambling regulators have warned casinos about a card-counting program for Apple’s iPhone and iPod Touch that can illegally help players beat the house in blackjack.
Card counting by players is not illegal in Nevada but using a device to count cards is considered a felony.
The Nevada Gaming Control Board warned casinos of the program last week.
Nevada learned of the program from California gambling regulators who said officials at an Indian casino found customers using it.
But board member Randy Sayre says the agency hasn’t received any reports of the program being used in Nevada.
Card counting can help blackjack players determine when they are likely to win a hand and should adjust their bets.”

A new game for mac! I’m not gonna lie. Pixie is awesome, and I’m not saying that because it was made by my favorite game developers Phelios (PTK Game Engine, Kaijin, Doulber) and EMV (Warblade and PocMon).
What’s the game about? The game’s main character, Pixie, loses her way in a magical forest one day and needs your guidance to return home. To succeed, gamers must play and advance in each game level, which will ultimately send Pixie on her way home, safe and sound. For each level, the objective of the game is to fence off or claim a majority of the playing field, turning it to a happy place filled with flowers, butterflies, mushrooms and life. Click on the playing board and send a magical vine to block off areas of the board. Block off bugs and other enemies to turn them into something more plesant. Catch coins as they fly off the bugs, then buy helpful bonuses like bombs, shields, health potions, extra lives and more in the game’s shop. Pixie features 100 levels, boss challenges, lots of good and bad bonuses, family friendly and highly addictive. NOTE! Pixie is also available for PC gamers!
Play Pixie now and download it below to try it out for free.
