iSlsk is coming for iPod and iPhone early this May. SoulSeek is a P2P program, like limewire. It focuses mainly on music sharing though.

From iPodTouchFans.com

For all of you guys who didn’t believe iSlsk was real, this video is for you. Sorry for the bad quality.

And for those who don’t know, iSlsk is a soulseek client for the iPhone/iPod Touch. Soulseek is a P2P sharing network similar to others like eMule, LimeWire, and BitTorrent.

This is a preview video, iSlsk wasn’t released yet because it’s still on development.

I (errrick) expect to have a beta before May, and a public release on that month.

Enjoy!

PS: for some reason, when downloading the second file it gets stuck at 4.5% both on soulseek and iSlsk.. disregard that, somethimes it gets freezed but after a while it resumes normally. i think it’s soulseek’s fault and not mine

Well as you can see, iSlsk, and P2P is not far away!

In todays news, it seems that Zibri, the creator of the popular Ziphone has discovered a very interesting piece of information.
With the release of the newest beta software for the iPhone, Zibri found a small piece of information in the packaging that confirms that 3G will be coming to the iPhone.
What was revealed was the implementation of a new chipset in the iPhone. The Infineon S-GOLD3H. What is this you ask? It is Infineon’s baseband processor that will be used in the up coming iPhone.

S-GOLD3H: Infineon’s baseband processor supports HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) data rates of up to 7.2 megabits per second (Mbit/s) for the mid-range multimedia phone segment.

With this new chip, data rates will double. People will awe and drool and the iPhone will again be breaking barriers with its new unleashed power.

Infineon states. . .

“Infineon strives for innovative integration of functionalities into its chips to provide our customers with a wide range of reference platforms designed for all segments of the mobile industry, from ultra-low-cost phones to feature phones, including technology ranging from 2G, or second generation, to 3.5G. Our new HSDPA chip enables more than triple the data rates possible in mass market phones today. This makes broadband multimedia applications, such as video streaming or high-speed audio/ video download, available to the mass market,” said Professor Dr. Hermann Eul, Member of the Board and head of the Communication Solutions business group at Infineon Technologies AG. “The scalability, versatility and completeness of our latest reference design platform enable our customers to meet extremely challenging time-to-market requirements when evolving from 2.75G phones to 3G and 3.5G phones, while being flexible enough to quickly adapt to changing markets.”

So folks, get ready for a roller coaster of events to be rolling out within the next couple of months.
Maybe finally, us folks over here in Japan will be able to bask in the glory of owning a new 3G iPhone soon.

First off the Dev Team released this video (iPod and iPhone friendly!). It is a video of the jailbreaking tool Pwnage (It also shows off firmware 2.0). Pwnage is a custom firmware builder. First you need to “pwn” you iPod though… before you can use your custom firmware. Which allows a custom loading screen, custom apple logo, and all sorts of goodies. The best part of it though, is that the Dev Team believes that “any subsequent firmware releases will also be vulnerable to “Pwnage” … like 1.2(2.0) beta.”

When might you ask? 30.03.2008. TOMORROW!

Update: Due to some beta testers complaints it is being released later this week.

The iPhone Dev Team (mostly Aviegas) has just released Liberty+. Liberty+ is a rival for jailbreaking and unlocking, taking on the heavyweight ZiPhone, I got a chance to beta test this on windows, and I found it quite similar and different than ZiPhone, similar in the fact that it goes into verbose mode, different because the Installer app is optional, Liberty+ comes with a dozen or so packages that you can install while it jailbreaks. On the beta I had no problems jailbreaking it, but installing Installer did not work. However geohot fixed it. Hopefully this application is as successful as ZiPhone, and propels both to do better work than the other.

Let us know if it works for you in the comments!
