AT&T was reportedly urging iPhone customers to cut back on internet and network usage. Apple clearly doesn’t like this giving a screw you by unlocking Ustream and streaming applications on the iTunes App Store, leaving people to flood AT&T’s network. Now reports are coming in at how much of AT&T’s network the iPhone uses. The iPhone’s use double what the Blackberry’s are using. The iPhone uses 40% of AT&T’s network, while, on being 3 percent of the phones using the network. It’s not surprising they aren’t happy. I wonder what’s to come from this? Apple can’t easily switch networks because they’re not many GSM networks in America. I assume AT&T just has put up with it.

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!
