Modding the Summer/Springboard? Easy as pie!

Download your favourite theme from AppTapp/Installer.app , then you can customise it within Summerboard preferences.

Or do it like what wei does, make your own Springboard backgrouns and icons! Use an app called "Customise" and fire away with your own homemade icons.

Preliminary report on my current attempt on jailbreaking the iPod Touch? Success!!! Used the TIFF exploit, and it's a one shot deal from there.

US sales tax or local customs tax?

US tax should be 6-8% depends on stage.

If you bring one or two or three back nobody will care. However if you bring 16 back and the Malaysian Customs somehow finds out you may be in trouble

I've never declared any of the individual electronic items that I've bought in the past many years I've been travelling. Pretty much all of them were taxable eg. iPods, iPhone, GPS etc. I'm not saying you shouldn't declare, I'm just stating how I did it in the past.

Confirmed (from the apple website) 3rd party apps:

Some companies are already taking action. Nokia, for example, is not allowing any applications to be loaded onto some of their newest phones unless they have a digital signature that can be traced back to a known developer. While this makes such a phone less than "totally open", we believe it is a step in the right direction. We are working on an advanced system which will offer developers broad access to natively program the iPhone's amazing software platform while at the same time protecting users from malicious programs.

We think a few months of patience now will be rewarded by many years of great third party applications running on safe and reliable iPhones.

P.S.: The SDK will also allow developers to create applications for iPod touch.
