iOS five has 200 updates but these are the ten best.

The search for an untethered jailbreak for Apple's latest mobile Operating System, iOS 5, is over. The FastUnlockiPhone.com team claim to have released a jailbreak tool to untethered jailbreak iOS 5 on iPhone 4. It has been named FastRa1n v5.0.

Just a few doors down from the Apple store in Sydney, where a long line of fans eagerly awaited the sale of the new iPhone 4S, another throng was gathering at a Samsung store.

It has been barely a week since the Apple iOS 5 was made publicly available and can be jailbroken tethered using Redsn0w 0.9.9b5, with the exception of iPhone 4S and iPad 2. Reports state that an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5 is due soon, something that could allow users the freedom from having to reconnect their iDevice to the computer every single time they reboot. However there has been no confirmation on the progress made by the Chronic Dev Team working on the untethered version.

With its new iOS 5 operating system, Apple adds many features to the iPad. Here are a few that can make a big difference in its use.

An unlocked version of the iPhone 4S is set to go on sale in November according to Apple's Web site, but since the release of the contract phone on Friday there have been reports of unlocked forms circulating certain retailers across the U.S.

A new Web site, iflybags.com, is hoping to take the guesswork out of the ever-changing and confusing checked luggage policies.

Apple Inc. took the wraps off the iPhone 4's sequel earlier this month. The new phone, called the iPhone 4S, has seen remarkable pre-order numbers. Pre-orders for the iPhone 4S started on Oct. 7 and has since registered 1 million units on the first day, surpassing the previous single-day record of 600,000 for the iPhone 4.

Apple Inc. has long denied the possibility of a 7-inch iPad to counter Android-based tablets tormenting the Cupertino-based tech giant with their low prices.

Apple's legendary co-founder and former CEO, Steve Jobs, is gone. However, the very last project that the gadget wizard worked on is yet to make its appearance. According to Rodman & Renshaw analyst Ashok Kumar, it is the iPhone 5 (or whatever Apple would like to call it) that Steve Jobs was intimately involved with from concept to final design.

The patent war continues.

The battle between high-end smartphones got hotter still after the iPhone 4S became available in stores on Friday. While the iPhone 4S is not the iPhone 5 that was forecast by rumor mills, it is certainly not a lesser device. The phone has significant hardware upgrades even though it looks identical to the iPhone 4.

With the tethered jailbreak, the user needs to reconnect the device to a Windows or Mac computer each time it needs to be booted. But an untethered jailbreak allows the device to be powered without computer assistance. So what about an untethered jailbreak for the iOS 5? Reports said an untethered iOS 5 jailbreak in the making.

There were rumors that Apple Inc. has sold 4 million units of iPhone 4S during the weekend but officially it is known that pre-orders reached 1 million mark.

South Korea-based Samsung Electronics Co., which has so far been on the defensive in its ongoing patent battle with Apple Inc., has finally launched an attack of its own on its Cupertino-based rival.

Recent reports have revealed that the new schedule for the event that will introduce the Ice Cream Sandwich Android and the Samsung Nexus Prime will be on Oct. 19. The venue for the launch event will reportedly be Hong Kong.

Apple’s iPhone 4S, which released on Friday instead of an iPhone 5 nudged away most of the speculations developed around it for a while.

If you have successfully jailbroken the beta version of iOS 5 on your iPhone, it is highly likely that you were confronted with the quarter screen issue, in which the full screen display gets shrunk to fit in one quarter of the screen.

Samsung has filed suits against Apple in Japan and Australia to stop sales of iPhone 4S, adding to similar complaints in France and Italy.

Amid tight security and an elite gathering, Apple Inc.'s late co-founder', Steve Jobs', memorial was held on Sunday evening, at the Memorial Church on Stanford University.

Steve Jobs, the former Apple CEO, was honored in the middle of tight security by mourners including Google chief executive Larry Page, media mogul Rupert Murdoch and former Vice President Al Gore, an Apple board member.
