I just jailbroke my iphone, should you? August 25, 2008 | perivision | Leave a comment When I first got the 3G, I decided to hold off on jailbreak till it was out for awhile and hopefully most of the bugs worked out.

iphone 2.0.2 OS update is out, and installed, and … August 19, 2008 | perivision | Leave a comment … and a bunch of nothing. Yea, the browser seemed a touch faster, but that is a cleared cache affect. I live on the edge of service so what I was looking for is a stronger and more stable 3G browsing experience. Well, first impression is that it’s the same. I’m going to leave it… Read More
GFail – Gmail down again today – We need a logo. August 18, 2008 | perivision | Leave a comment Did not last all that long, but made me think, we really need an image for this.

I figured they would be everywhere, but… Read More

Ok, another rant on why I regret going to the new iphone.. <rant> During a phone call, quite often the keypad will be displayed and active.

iphone 3G dropped calls … temp fix to help, not a full fix August 11, 2008 | perivision | Leave a comment I’m getting sick of this and so are others.

Keep it off unless you need… Read More

Does your iphone 3G keep crashing even after 2.0.1? August 9, 2008 | perivision | Leave a comment Well, it could be because you have a defective phone! Yes, it’s possible.

A friend of mine, and a few other blogs… Read More
