Apple can’t put a hold a on all those jailbreaks happening on the number all its devices. From the iPhone to iPod Touch and the iPad, you name it and the developer community is almost instantly out with a jailbreak. I guess the only way for Apple to put a halt on jailbreaks is to stop rolling out any new device or updates to its iOS.

Apple iPad is impressive, I have to admit and it’s going to take a lot from other manufacturers to come close to it. But lets keep other manufacturers out and focus on iPad and anticipation associated to it, like all Apple products.

PayPal today made life easier, especially when it comes to making payments online. The e-commerce site today announced that it would accept deposits from users with their iPhone. Now that’s mobile payment in real and its dead simple.
What consumers can do is simply take a photograph of the check’s front and backside and submit the same. Your task is then done and PayPal would transfer the cash to your account.

It has been quite some since we first heard about the Apple TV coming out in the markets.

Have an iPad? You have every reason to cling to the device and being one of those technically advanced folks. Somehow I noticed that whoever has the device appears to do everything on it or at least pretends to, be it being logged on to Twitter or Facebook all the way to reading your feeds or emailing. But there are two things I would personally love doing two things on it, playing games and music.
The girl in the video below might have managed to become the first iPad Street Musician. She was caught playing sitar on her iPad and looks as if she is quite involved doing so. I am sure she isn’t the first one to be doing this and there are more.

Who knows all such techie musicians can come together and give all the nerds a taste of an Apple-ish music?
