This is the case of PLX XWave headset, a headphone -style audio device that will allow you to send impulses to our iPhone and iPad
iPod Touch , connected via the headphone jack and USB connector. The device will detect the peaks and troughs of concentration of attention , and to translate thoughts into small tasks.
The project would see the light from next November , although it is unclear exactly when the product will be distributed : here the product website you can still pre-order from 1 November (but a warning that comes to availability in 2011 ) for a price that is around $ 100 .
Certainly be attracted to purchase will be more than other researchers (as well as the most devoted fan and I would say even well-off ), but why is not practical to get around having to deal with this in mind whenever you make a volume control iPhone , for now, the most immediate is still that of touch !

Here's a video demonstration :

[SHAtter] [UPDATED] New Jailbreak for ALL Existing iOS Devices Forever

According to a new post on the iPhone wiki from the well-know iPhone hacker p0sixninja, reveals some information about the exploit (named SHAtter) discovered by him and pod2g. The information refers to a new bootrom based exploit which will make all current iOS devices always perform the jailbreak forever.

p0sixninja worked a lot for this vulnerability, then pod2g made a process to run the exploit on iOS 4.1 yesterday. SHAtter is the codename source for this exploit, this vulnerability acts on the hardware of the device, so Apple can't close this hole, only on the new devices.

All Apple devices produced before the release of this exploit will be free forever, including the newly released iPod touch 4G and the iPad. The next jailbreak may be tethered (not confirmed yet) which means you have to connect your device to your computer to be able to reboot it.

Anyway Apple loses the fight. As usual, we will keep you informed by any updates about this jailbreak that will frees all devices. [via Twitter]

Update 1: p0sixninja discarded the tweet and deleted SHAtter page from the wiki blog because the information was accidently misleading. Will Strafach updated his post to include more information and facts,

- We have not yet announced if this is tethered or untethered
- We have not yet announced details about the exploit
- Anything you read saying it is one of the above in definite terms is just speculation, again, we have not given official word about the tether status or any details regarding the exploit used.

We will keep updating for more information we get.

There are Only 44 Million Active Monthly iOS Users, not 104 Million "Facebook Says"

It was just a week ago when Facebook posted that there's over 150 million active monthly users on mobile platforms, 104 million of them were browsing Facebook on the service’s popular iPhone app. This was a rather false figure, Engadget got in touch with Facebook and has updated its figures saying that there are only 44 million active monthly iOS users not 104 million. Here's what they say,

There are currently 44 million monthly active users of the Facebook for iPhone app. We recently changed the definition of mobile active users to exclude those who have only liked or commented on stream stories. Instead we are counting “active” users as people who have taken explicit actions within an application. This practice is more aligned with how we count overall active users for the site.

Well, it still an impressive figure. In my opinion, the 44 Million active monthly users are using iPhone and iPod touch not iPad, as the Facebook app bugs a lot on the iPad.
