iPhone Dev Team has released Redsn0w 0.9.6 RC15 and PwnageTool 4.3.3 for untethered iOS 4.3.3 jailbreak.

The hacker has now regenerated the binaries for the latest 4.3.3 firmware and given it to the iPhone Dev Team.

Google I/O is right around the corner, talking place on May 10-11, 2011 at Moscone Center, San Francisco. The Google I/O rumor mill has been surprisingly calm this year, but a recent tweet from @MAFiA303, who reportedly “works with Samsung,” changes that completely –

Here, we are once again discussing the iPhone 6 before we’ve even gotten a first look at the iPhone 5. Surfacing reports suggest that Apple is already laying the foundation for its sixth generation iPhone, at least in terms of hardware, starting with the device’s LCD display.

Based on the reports, this is what we know for now — Apple is planning to work with Sharp to produce futuristic, next-generation low-temperature poly-silicon LCD displays. The benefit of the LCD displays will be a lighter-weight and thinner design for the iPhone.

It isn’t exactly a secret that U.S wireless provider Sprint isn’t exactly a fan of the proposed AT&T and T-Mobile merger. Dan Hesse, the company’s CEO has been very straight forward with his concerns, the main concern being that the merge will end up creating a duopoly between AT&T and Verizon Wireless. The carrier is therefore looking for even more anti-merger ammunition. The folks over at Bloomberg are reporting that Sprint representatives have “signed confidentiality agreements in advance of possibly gaining access to filings that won’t be available to the public.”

Just recently, the Nielsen Company released the findings of its latest smartphone survey, which asked respondents planning to purchase new smartphones which platform they intended to patronize. When being asked this question last year between June and September, 33% named iOS, 26% said iOS, and 13% said they planned to purchase a BlackBerry smartphone. This has changed since then and it isn’t exactly a surprise seeing how things have been going.

When a new group was asked the same question between January and March of 2011, Android slipped past Apple’s iOS platform to become the most wanted More >
