Have you ever had thoughts of jail breaking your iPhone/iPod touch?

If so just note that depending on what you do will void your contract with AT&T or warranty with Apple.  Jail breaking your iPhone/iPod touch is not recommend by Apple because they do not want you using other software other then there own but please note when you jail break it your warranty is not voided right away.  There are only three things that can void your warranty when/while  jail breaking.  First is if you brick your phone meaning you mess it up while jailbreaking.  If you are unable to restore your phone/touch or  you can’t get it to recognized in iTunes and Apple knows relates your problem to your jailbreak then you are in some danger when it comes to your warranty.  Second if you download hacked apps and Apple knows then your in some trouble. But please note when your phone/touch back for repair the first step you are suppose to do is wipe your data and that does delete your jailbreak… but also please note you do not have to follow that step.  Third, if you hack the phone so you can unrestrict things on the 3G network or AT&T’s network in gerenal and AT&T finds out your dead.  But the chances of AT&T finding out is unlikly because you have a private poicly plan with them meaning they can’t see what you are doing with your phone data usage but they can restrict data useage to 5GB a month if you go overboard with your phone which is most likely over 5GB a month.  So thats it to jailbreaking! MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING BEFORE YOU JAILBRAKE! I JAILBROKE WITH HTTP://BLACKRA1N.COM

According to engadget.com and www.macrumors.com the Apple Event has been confirmed!!!  On the picture it says “come see our latest creation.” Thinking about that something must be new. In January 2008 Apple introduced the MacBook Air (which I am currently using right now) and they had the tag “There’s something in the Air.” and as Steve Jobs says it “There’s something clearly in the Air.” What do you think is going to be introduced in this event.  This event is to take place on the 27th which is next week!  There was many rumors saying that there would be an event this month and now we know its true! As we know by the title of macrumors post that Apple has already sent out invitations. Comment below on what you think is going to be there creation! You can view the articles at http://iurlz.us/6cbV and http://iurlz.us/N0A1

Sony Has released details on a new product, the Sony Dash.  The dash is a brand new product for accessing web-based content in the home without utilizing a full computer system. Instead, it packs specially tailored web content such as Twitter, video streams, and more into a small, alarm-clock device that you can position anywhere in your home Wi-Fi network. The Dash will be able to use proprietary apps and servives. The Sony Dash will come out in store in April at a cost of $199 US

This Year Sony is planning to invest more into 3D media. They have started to invest into making 3D Television to have 3D channels like IMax. Sony Promises to expand into 3D gaming for the PS3. According to Sony every PS3 can get a Firmware Update that will allow them to play 3D standard games and other 3d media. At the Conference 3 games were shown in 3D Avatar The Game, Super Stardust HD and Gran Turismo 5. Sony hasn’t confirmed a pricing yet.

Microsoft reveals more details on their new motion controller Project Natal. They Have confirmed that the new Controller will be released before the end of 2010. Project Natal will be running at 30 frames per second from camera. Microsft reassured that the games won’t run at the speed.

Microsoft also reveal that a new DLC for Modern Warfare 2 will be released first on the 360.

Optoma unveiled their newest series home projection systems, the Game Time projector series. According to Optoma, the Game Time projectors were designed specifically with interactive gaming in mind. The two new projectors are the GT360 and the GT720, and both feature 2,500 lumens, 3,000:1 contrast ratios, built-in stereo speaker systems, and short-throw lenses to accommodate smaller room configurations. The GT360, Optoma says, is designed with the Nintendo Wii in mind, with a native SVGA resolution of 800 x 600. The GT360 is capable of accepting and processing full 1080p HD signals from other sources, but the resolution output remains limited to 800 x 600. On the other hand, the GT720 is geared toward the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 with a higher native widescreen resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Like the GT360, the GT720 can accept full 1080p sources, but again, the resolution is locked in at the native 1280 x 800 resolution. Aside from the slight bump in resolution, the only discernible differences between the two projectors are their color schemes; the GT360 comes in white, while the GT720 is available in black.

As for the 3D-readiness of the projectors, both are DLP, which means they are capable of 3D playback, however, the functionality of their 3D capability is dependent largely on a user’s input sources.

The GT360 and the GT720 will arrive this March and will be priced at $499 and $699 respectively.
