Microsoft has finally taken the wraps off its shiny new web browser: Internet Explorer 9. The beta version of IE 9 is now available for download for users running both 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows 7 and Vista. BlackBerry Torch review
When we began our review of the BlackBerry Torch (aka the Bold 9800), our hearts were all aflutter. The leaked shots we'd been seeing of some kind of Palm Pre-esque RIM slider Epic 4G review
Of the seemingly countless variants of the Galaxy S that Samsung's in the process of deploying around the globe, one stands out in a couple very unique (and important) ways: Sprint's Epic 4G You Can Now Run Windows 7 and Linux on iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, Sort of.
While you won’t be ever able to run a full-blown modern desktop OS like Windows or Linux on your iOS gadget anytime soon, but with virtual-machining software Parallels Desktop for Mac Apple Releases New iPod touch 4G and iPod nano 6G Ads [Video]
Earlier today, Apple overhauled the entire iPod lineup for fall 2010, bringing iPhone 4 Download Limera1n to Jailbreak iOS 4.1 on iPhone 4, 3GS, iPad, iPod touch 4G
Its here folks! and its real!! Geohot is back big time with limera1n jailbreak for all iOS devices including: iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad, iPod touch 4G / 3G / 2G, untethered running iOS 4.1. PwnageTool 4.1 for Jailbreaking Apple TV 2G, iPhone 4, iPad and iPod touch 4G Now Available for Download
The iPhone Dev Team has finally released PwnageTool 4.1 which is based on recently releasedLimera1n Geohot’s bootrom-based exploit. Shocking! Apple Approves BitTorrent App for iPhone and iPod touch !
After Apple relaxed its App Store restrictions, the first of apps that benefitted from this were Google Voice clients (like GV Connect and GV Mobile+)

Nearly a year after the company launched its Nehalem processor into the Xeon space, Intel on Tuesday announced the Xeon 5600, the so-called "Westmere EP."
The Xeon 5600 is available in configurations up to six cores, as well as low-power derivatives. According to Intel, the chip – Intel's first 32-nm Xeon – offers 60 percent more performance than the 45-nm Xeon 5500 that Intel announced last March, and includes support for AES New Instructions as well as Trusted Execution Technology, which examines all of the processing components and checks them against a known, trusted profile.
In all, the Xeon 5600 is designed to accelerate and secure cloud computing environments, a small but growing segment of the IT industry. Intel has found selling security to be a challenge, as Intel's chief technology office Justin Rattner acknowledged to a group of researchers last week. But Intel executives also said that the pitch is a lot more relevant when a specific problem is addressed.
"If you talk to a specific IT manager, and start telling them a solution is more secure, with all that hand-waving, well... " said Boyd Davis, general manager of server platforms group marketing at Intel. "But if can sell them a specific solution to a specific problem, than that goes over better. But if you just toss a solution over the wall, it can fall flat."
Selling a solution will require assistance from software and other solutions partners, Davis said, which will arrive in the coming weeks and months. Systems based on the Xeon 5600 are expected from Cisco, Dell, Fusjitsu, HP, IBM, and Oracle, among others, and software vendors including Citrix, IBM, Microsoft, Novell, Red Hat, and VMWare will support the new processor.
Two versions of the chip will be produced: a four-core, frequency-optimized version running at 3.46-GHz at 130 watts, and a six-core, 3.33-GHz version. Other versions will ship in a 2.93-GHz, 6-core, 95-watt configuration, as well as a standard 2.66-GHz, 4-core, 80-watt configuration.
The Xeon 5600 will drop in to an existing Xeon 5500 configuration, allowing access to the additional AES instructions. The Trusted Execution Technology will require a more complete upgrade.
Two low-power-optimized versions will also be available: the six-core E5645 and L5638, as well as the four-core L5618 and E5620 chips. Another version, the L3406, will be able to power microservers running at as little as 30 watts. In a live demonstration via VoIP, Intel showed off a pair of Xeon 5600 servers running off a portable solar cell in the Las Vegas desert. In total, both servers required 200 watts.
However, Intel also addressed the more traditional metrics of performance and consolidation, which have typically driven server upgrade strategies. Although the Xeon 5500 represented a significant upgrade, Intel claims that the Xeon 5600 can replace up to 15 single-core servers, paying back the investment in as little as five months.
According to Intel, a Fujitsu Primergy RX300 S6 system established a world-record Java performance of 928,393 bops, up 46 percent from the prior generation, world record ERP performance (SA-SD 2-Tiwe ERP 6.0 Unicode of 4,860 benchmark users) and a SPECWeb2005 score of 104,422, up 25 percent from the prior generation.
"In five years, we'd like a company's low-end hardware to be a [Xeon] 5600," Davis said.
