After months of speculation and denial by many, iCloud was unveiled today at WWDC. The new service is Apple's answer to cloud computing and an extension, and replacement, of its online offerings. After the failure of MobileMe, which was introduced back in 2009, Apple is attempting succeed with its new replacement: iCloud".
According to AppShopper, a reputable iOS and Mac OS X app directory, over 400,000 apps are now available for download for iOS in Apple’s App Store (with over 500,000 being approved apps), or more precisely, 401,437. If AppShopper's statistics are accurate, this is yet another milestone for Apple and iOS platform.
Rumors have been abound for months now that Apple is looking to get into the online music locker game, and given they recently took over the domain name for iCloud then it's looking fairly certain the Cupertino outfit is planning something in the cloud space.

iPhone developer iH8sn0w has just released a new version of iREB which is compatible with all iOS 4.2.1 devices. You can use it to bypass 1604, 1603, 1602, 1601, 1600 error in iTunes during custom iOS 4.2.1 firmware restore which has been created using either Sn0wbreeze or PwnageTool.
We've all done it: connected a jailbroken iOS device to iTunes and watched in horror as it's merrily started to update when you accidentally stabbed at the wrong button. No more, for there's now a solution in the form of RecoveryGuard.
