Geeks really like benchmarks – they’re one of the best ways to compare hardware speeds, and things are no different in the world of the smartphone.

With the aim of comparing the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and Nokia’s Windows Phone 7-powered Lumia 800, YouTube user 359gsm set about running a selection of web-based benchmarks to see just which of the three phones is the quickest when it comes to rendering web pages.

Apple Planning a Media Event in New York This Month

Posted: 02 Jan 2012 01:18 PM PST

AllThingsD reports that Apple is planning a media event sometimes this month in New York. Apparently, this will not be related to the upcoming iPad 3 or even the rumored Apple TV set.

That leaves some kind of advertising or even publishing announcement, which might be the case, since Apple SVP of Internet Software and Services Eddy Cue is reportedly involved.

Cue is in charge of a large swath of Apple's media units, including the iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, as well as iAd and its iCloud services.

What do you think it’s going to be about?

pod2g Divulges More Details Behind Corona Exploit

Posted: 02 Jan 2012 12:57 PM PST

iOS hacker pod2g has posted a very enlightening synopsis of how he was able to pull off his 5.0.1 untethered exploit. Citing Apple’s wising up to the exploit methods used prior to iOS 5, he details the alternative methods used for the 5.0.1 untethered exploit and subsequent jailbreaks.

Apple has fixed all previous known ways of executing unsigned binaries in iOS 5.0. Corona does it another way.

Thus, for Corona, I searched for a way to start unsigned code at boot without using the Mach-O loader. That’s why I looked for vulnerabilities in existing Apple binaries that I could call using standard launchd plist mechanisms.

For those of you interested in the low-level workings of the latest untethered jailbreak to hit iOS 5 devices, we highly recommend you check out pod2g’s analysis on his blog.
