Paypal has also had its apps for those who want to send and receive money and even buy stuff online easily. On Tuesday Paypal bought about a new updated to its already existent apps for the iPod and the iPhone called Send Money. This version is called the Version 2.0 that allows its users to send money through a medium called Bump. The technique is really simple; transfer of money takes place after two iPhones are “bumped” together.

What most people would admire is the Split Check feature that is also available on the apps that allows users to split their dinner or outing bills between the others. That also includes tips, tax and it can also show how much they need to reimburse each other with.

Now the update is surely unique and you will surely love using the new features that this new version comes along with. With this new update you can collect money from people who owe you money.

Jailbreak and unlock iphone 3.1.and iPod Touch 2G – 1 week ago came the update 3.2 for iPhone and iPod Touch, which as always cancels any jailbreak or unlocking. But of course, the Dev Team is working and has just released a new version of a Tool for Mac, which allows now to make a jailbreak and unlock for iPhone 3G and iPod Touch:

* iPhone 2G (1st generation) and jailbreak and unlock OK
* iPhone 3G: jailbreak OK, use ultrasnow for unlock
* iPhone 3GS: unlock and jailbreak
* iPod Touch 1G (1st Generation): OK jailbreak
* 2G iPod touch: unlock
* iPod touch 3G (all new): unlock with the new software

If you have never used the iTool to build your own firmware, this is not rocket science, it must just be careful what you do, and help you, I refer you to the tutorial images of iTool , that can be found on our site.

The procedure does not change, you just need to use property on the latest version of iTool and firmware:

* Bittorent iTool 3.1 through or via http

* Firmware 3.1: the easiest way to be sure to have the correct version is to download the firmware via iTunes 9, by connecting your device, then clicking “Update” then “Download Only” (especially not install firmware). The firmware is then in your ~ / Library / iTunes / iPhone Software Updates (for iPhone) or in the folder ~ / Library / iTunes / iPod Software Updates (for an iPod touch)

Finally, as all this is for Mac owners, you can use BlackRain to make a jailbreak and unlock iPhone under Windows.

In order to download iTool go to Unlock iPhone 3G.

More ipod software download!

Enter iPhone Explorer, a free utility that effectively turns your iPhone or Touch into a flash drive–no jailbreaking required.

In other words, it provides a drag-and-drop interface for the contents of your device. And it’s available for both Windows and Mac.

Before you download it, a word of warning: This is not a tool for novices. The first time you run iPhone Explorer, a decidedly confusing pop-up asks which root directory you want.

What’s more, monkeying with the files and folders on your device could cause unintended problems.

On the other hand, if you’re looking for an easy way to copy, say, photos and music from your device to your PC, or you just want to leverage available storage space to transport some files, iPhone Explorer provides exactly the tools you need.

There are a number of racing games available on the App Store, but 4×4 Jam offers more game play and various modes that make it stand above the rest. There are the usual race modes, but what makes this different is the openness of getting from A to B. The track is wide open and instead of being forced along a designated path, you decide how to get there.

In terms of play modes, the game offers standard racing, Jam and open world. I have to say I am enjoying jam and the open world driving the most over the actual racing game. Jam sets up way-points and the goal is to race to and cross these way-points before the other racers. Get there first and the way-point is moved and you’re off again. This is done until a racer get’s the most way-points to win a race.

The open world is truly amazing for such a portable device. You can literally drive around forever and not be stopped. It’s fun to discover new areas with hills and valley’s to jump off and into. The only minor quibble is the fact that the landscape could use some more detail. There are hills, trees and brush to drive through, but maybe some other objects to interact with could be added in the future.

As mentioned, the graphics are outstanding. The vehicles all are well modeled and things are pretty smooth even on my 1st Gen iPod Touch. I imagine on newer devices, everything is perfectly smooth.

The physics in the game is also worth mentioning. Cars collide and interact with each other to cause roll-overs and other mayhem.

Overall a VERY satisfying and fun game to play that offers some variety to the standard racing genre.
