RE: THE THREAD!!!
Hi all,
Leo "Apollo11"
ORIGINAL: Apollo11
BTW, Kristian, did you "jailbreak" your "iPhone 4" and "iPad 2"?
I did long long time ago and I never regreted it (ever since I had my first iPhone - "IPhone 3G")... [8D]
Also I bought about 20$ worth of unofficial apps via Cydia - I couldn't be using my phone without those! [:)]
P.S.
Jailbreaking is not illegal nor it invalidates your warranty!

RE: THE THREAD!!!
No jailbreaking. Haven't found any must-have apps I can't get outside the App Store.

Hi all,
Well... perhaps it is because you are still newbie and discovering stuff... I have iPhone for several years now... [:D]
For example LockInfo (I have bigger weather - and SMS there - I don't use Twitter):

Yes, because that's SO much better than the standard lock screen... You'll have to do better than that, Leo...

RE: THE THREAD!!!
Today is a challenging day. All of the innocents and heros who lost their lives 10 years ago will never be forgotten. Nor will all who have been wounded or killed after choosing to defend us in the years since. What I can not and will not do is dwell on all of the negative aspects of this moment in history. I will focus on all of the blessings I have in this world. The cup is way more than half full. [8D]
Terrorism is an attempt to intimidate. I will never let them intimidate me. As a whole, the people of the United States of America will never be intimidated. Today and every day, I am very proud to be an American! [&o]

Hi all,
You really don't find this useful and practical?!?! [&:]
Well... then... to every man each own... what can I say... tastes differ... [8D]
BTW, none of my friends ("Power Users") that tried iPhone / iPad "JailBreak" ever returned too "vanilla Apple" - I haven't read about similar experiences on Internet as well (all those who wish to use iPhone / iPad even more and better never regretted going "JailBreak" route)...

It took you full 74 seconds to read my initial list, think about it and write that you don't need anything from it! [X(]

RE: THE THREAD!!!
Today is also a day of celebration amidst the solemnity. It's the full-throated primal scream that commences the NFL season. So I find myself somewhat torn between following the remembrance services and channel surfing the NFL.
I think I'll split the difference and take my daughter and wife out on a bike ride. We've had lovely weather here this week.
Enjoy the day, THREAD dudes. As most of the surviving first responders' memoirs have told us-life is fragile. Spend yours wisely.

I thought of a few trite things to say but words fail me today. Enjoy the day with those you love.
