There is a lot going on over the next little while around town and elsewhere. Here’s just a few of the events you should check out. Tonight (Sunday, January 20th for you slow feed readers) Watch Rebecca (aka Miss604) on CBC’s Test the Nation where she (and a few other locals) ‘represents’ on the Blogger’s…
The internets are all abuzz with news (and video proof) that the latest firmware for the iPhone (and Touch as seen in the video) has been jailbroken…but the method hasn’t been released yet.
