Apple WWDC 2009
WWDC is arguably now the largest Apple event of the year, where Apple will be unveiling more details on iPhone 3.0 and "Snow Leopard," but what else? A new iPhone? An Apple Netbook? Stick with Appletell for complete coverage and in depth looks at the new technologies as they're announced.
Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
With the strong efforts of hackers and developers trying to get Linux on Apple’s iPod, it could only be expected that the same would happen for the iPhone. And it has. As of Friday, November 28th, the Linux on the iPhone team, lead by planetbeing, was able to port the Linux 2.6 kernel over to the iPhone. Although many drivers are missing, they currently have the framebuffer driver, serial driver, and serial over USB driver, which is enough to be able to announce that the iPhone is running an alternative OS. They are currently using an userland based on the Busybox installation, and don’t yet have support for wireless networking, the touchscreen, sound, or the accelerometer.
This is clearly far from being completed, but you can help. The Linux on the iPhone team is looking for help from anyone who has experience “hacking/porting Linux and especially if you’re experienced with porting Android.” If that’s you, head on over to the #iphonelinux channel on irc.osx86.hu. With more help, this project could get to a complete product even faster. Imagine the ability to run other OSes on your iPhone, or even to run other operating systems on top of the iPhone OS itself. That would be insanely awesome, for lack of a better word.
