Few months ago, the Stanford University started a new course dedicated to the development of applications for iPhone, using Cocoa Touch. In these days, the same university publicly released the PDF documents about this new course. To follow te course it is necessary to have a Intel-based Mac with the iPhone SDK installed.

Following it is possible to find the links to download the currently available PDF documents.

By a news published on AppleBlog and then published on many other webportals/blogs related to the Apple world, I have just noticed that IBM has released an interesting PDF guide about developing iPhone applications on Windows and Linux, using tools like Eclipse and Cygwin.
I didn’t read the guide yet, but I think that I will read it as soon as possible in the next hours. You can find the PDF document following this link.

Ieri è stato ufficialmente rilasciato su AppStore, Fring, nota applicazione per dispositivi Mobile che permette di usare numerosi protocolli di Instant Messaging (IM) come ad esempio: MSN, ICQ, etc. Fring, inoltre, permette di effettuare chiamate VoIP attraverso la rete wireless utilizzando Skype o qualsiasi altro provider SIP, purchè abbiate credito disponibile. La nuova versione di Fring è compatibile sia con iPhone 2G che con i nuovi iPhone 3G. Da notare che Fring è un’applicazione completamente gratuita.

In these days I tried to Jailbreak my iPhone 3G to install third-part applications. To Jailbreak my iPhone I used the QuickPwn 2.1 software, which has been updated to support the latest iPhone firmware: the 2.1 version. QuickPwn is very easy to use and in 7 or 8 minutes I obtained a fully unblocked iPhone. Anyway, to make the not-expert users’ life easy, I decided to write a short step-by-step tutorial.
