The iPhone DevTeam confirms that jailbreak on OS 3.0 is working. Nothing can be done about it since in order for apple to stop jailbreak they have to remplace the hardware. As soon as OS 3.0 will be released we can expect to have jailbreak app available.

Apple has just released iPhone OS 3.0 beta 5 build 7A312g, almost a week after they released beta 4. With this released they also released a new version of the iPhone SDK and iTunes 8.2 (b10)

Remember this are only available to register developers and if you are not we recomend not to install or you will have a device with a pink screen of death since you need to activate the beta using iTunes and your device must be register in a database.

iPanties. Slide to unlock, wow!!

This is a new nice looking concept of future iPhone from iSpazio's user CrazyEM:

Here is a list of changes from iSapzio (sorry, screenshots are in Italian):

1. You can now enter to Settings-Store to see the balance and billing information:

2. Another change concerns volume control in the iPod app (or the "Music" on iPod Touch). While using Firmware 3.0 beta 4 on iPod Touch first generation, we can see that the controls for the volume are gone. This is an intelligent system, that turns on and off volume control, depending on USB, headphones and AD2P connection:

3. Fixed problems with iPhoto and displaying thumbnails of the screenshots / images from the CameraRoll.

Apple released new firmware 3.0 beta4. It is only for developers' use and it requires iTunes 8.2.

Several developers report a pink screen error. When usiing iTunes 8.2 the screen should be pink for a few seconds and then the upgrade process will start. Others report that pink screen disappears after reboot.

Apple pre-released new version of iTunes 8.2. It is avaliable only for developers. The big change is a support for Blu-Ray. This leaves us to imagine that in the future Apple will add support reading/recognizing Blu-Ray discs

Apple has updated the official website dedicated to the WWDC, the event where Apple will present Firmware 3.0, the new iPhone and more. The news are great -  all available seats are gone.

The latest rumors say that the Keynote will not be presented by Steve Jobs.

Skype is updated to version 1.0.3. Here is a changelog:

• Fixed crashing when clicking on certain contacts in the contact list.
• Fixed crashing when returning to the contact list after having accepted a contact authorization request in specific cases.
• Improved the handling of international calling prefixes in SkypeOut calling.

You might still see a pop-up (first time launch) saying that the application works only on non-jailbroked devices. I can assure you that it works rather well, without any problems.

We don't have an explanation for this, but the new version of the Google Mobile App for iPhone/iPod Touch lists some pretty wacky improvements, notably "Longer Version Number" and "Ninja." This screen can be seen in the "Update Details" section of the app. We hope some fun-loving Google employee didn't just get fired for his ninja-humor-based initiative.
