There are 5 billion connected devices globally - 10% of them are primarily gaming devices.

In 2010, there were over 500 million games sold. That is more than every iPhone and iPod ever sold for all time. Obviously gaming is important.

This is a must watch video if you are into gaming in any way shape or form. There are a bunch more gaming specific details inside, you might need to watch it a bunch of times, even if you are at the office! For the sake of work and research of course.

p.s. - plus a very cool soundtrack from the Prodigy.

 If you have been sitting on the fence whether to jailbreak your iPhone or not then this video is for you.  Robert Scoble sits down with @saurik, the creator of Cydia and is one of the pioneers for jailbreaking iPhones.  He tell us the benefits that can be had from jailbreaking your iPhone (or iPad).

 This is a pretty funny.  The creators of the cult TV cartoon, South Park put out a preview where Kyle gets tracked down by Apple because of his iPad.  

Enjoy!

Much has been written in the last week about Apple's supposed "tracking" of users' location and the fact that such tracking data is supposedly stored to the iPhone in an unencrypted database file. Indeed, we haven't seen this much fervor against the world's most popular phone manufacturer since last year's overblown "AntennaGate" fiasco. But does Apple really deserve this kind of abuse from the media?

For well over a year now, Androidophiles have been butting heads with Apple Fanboys over whether Android phones are better than iPhones. With this year's release of the iPhone 4 and a series of incredible Android phones like the HTC Legend and Desire and the Samsung Galaxy, that argument has only gotten more intense and more heated.

There's one thing that people aren't talking so much about, though - the fact that Android might just be saving Apple from itself.

For those of us who live an on-the-go lifestyle (and let’s be frank: who doesn’t these days?), it can sometimes be a hassle to move your files from one place to another. For iPhone users, it can be a particular burden – Apple’s Safari web browser doesn’t let you save files, and there isn’t any built-in solution for storing or syncing files.

Back when the iPhone was still a new product, we used to hear a great deal about what a sea change it was causing in the world of video games. Gaming, previously considered the provinence of introverted, stay-at-home nerds sitting in the dark with a two-liter bottle of Mountain Dew, had suddenly become something that you might see on the bus, on the subway, at a restaurant.

There's a new iDevice jailbreak on the market, called JailbreakMe 2.0 - one that is capable of jailbreaking the iPhone 4, iPad, iPod Touch, iPhone 3G and 3Gs...basically every iDevice out there. The best thing about it is that you don't even have to plug in your iPhone to use it - it's browser-based. All you have to do is load up the website in your iPhone's browser and the jailbreaking process will begin.

When word came down this week that the much-loathed DMCA had been reviewed and subsequently relaxed, iPhone hackers around the US rejoiced. But what exactly to the new changes mean for iPhone owners and their iDevices? In short: a much greater amount of legal freedom to tweak the software of their mobile devices than they had previously.
