evasi0n 92 percent

By now, most of you have probably already heard that Evasi0n will not be arriving today. The evad3rs tweeted this afternoon that the final countdown towards ‘tomorrow’s release’ has begun.

Of course, they didn’t give us any idea of what time to expect it tomorrow. But, as a few folks on Twitter have pointed out, the progress bar on the Evasi0n page is set to expire at noon tomorrow…(...)

Apparently, Sunday isn’t exactly Funday after all. Contray to popular belief, the iOS 6 untethered jailbreak will be released tomorrow (Monday), instead of Sunday. The evad3rs team just sent out a tweet confirming it.

In the meantime, evasi0n.com shows a status of 90% complete. All that’s left to do now is to perform final tests and preparation.(...)

Apple specialist Sam Sung gets a mention in Samsung’s Super Bowl commercial

Posted: 03 Feb 2013 12:43 PM PST

If you live outside the United States, you could be wondering why all the fuss about Super Bowl. But to many of our U.S. readers, Super Bowl is America’s favorite national pastime. Regardless of the camp you belong to, pretty much all of us love big-budget Super Bowl commercials, that much is a given. And speaking of advertising, Samsung ahead of Sunday’s Big Game has “leaked” its anticipated commercial.

Conceptualized by the Los Angeles-based creative shop 72andSunny and directed by Jon Favreau, it features Knocked Up stars Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd who are called in to pitch their concepts for Samsung’s Next Big Thing.

But despite their best effort to bat around crazy ideas with Bob Odenkirk (example: “crowdsourcing… we won't have to think of ideas!"), Miami Heat star LeBron James makes a tablet cameo and lands the gig instead. Though it takes jabs at both the NFL and ad industry and mocks Psy and his Gangnam Style, interestingly enough the commercial isn’t about Apple at all, sans a subtle reference that almost escaped my attention…(...)

This is pretty interesting, and fairly relevant considering the Super Bowl is later today. The folks over at Impakt Protective have come up with a g-force sensor that fits inside a helmet, and measures the impact a player sustains from a tackle or collision.

If a player is hit too hard, the sensor, which is appropriately named the Shockbox, will send a color-coded alert to a designated iPhone or other mobile device. Impakt is hoping that this will help curb the growing rate of sports-related head injuries…(...)

iOS 6 Jailbreak imminent – status now at 85%

All of the signs are pointing to a very imminent iOS 6 jailbreak release. Many of the important Cydia packages have just been updated, the first round of testing has concluded for the major platforms, and now, a new Read me section has been added to the evasi0n.com home page.

As it has been stated before, it is believed that Sunday — today — will be the day that the jailbreak will be released by the evad3rs. It could come at any time, but now we feel that we could be, perhaps, very close to the actual release.(...)
