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.






Hackers have been wanting to get their hands on the iPhone. Now that the iPhone has been released and has made its way into their hands, hackers are taking the iPhone apart and seeing what they can change easily and see what they can change with more than a little elbow grease.
There are currently five hacks listed on the site. They include modifying the carrier logo to one of your choosing (their example, “pwn”), adding your own ringtones to the file system, updating and rearranging the widget icons on your home screen, and revealing the two “secret applications,” one of which includes the field test which has already been mentioned in an earlier post.
All of this hacking comes at a price: you could become a nervous wreck if you choose to do these hacks and are not sure if you want to go through with them. The stability issues are still in question. TUAW also reports that the bug in the software that turns your gigabytes of storage into megabytes has been fixed, as well as adding the “getfile” and “putfile” functions, but no “removefile” for erasing items you do not like.
Details for getting the software and how to do the hacks are available on TUAW’s site.
