Real quick, no movies released this week as most request were answered in Forum. Lots of new TV shows from the weekend and last night so check them out.

Now for the news! In case you missed it, there has been a lot of iPhone news the past 48 hours centered around jailbreaking and VoIP (voice over IP). First, AT&T announced today it would allow VoIP over its 3G network. This is great news if you use apps like Skype. Now you can pretty much use Skype everywhere all the time (not just when you have a Wi-Fi connection). This will save some of you a ton of money especially if you make international calls a lot (yes Canada is an international call). However, I almost never make international calls so this news wasn’t too exciting to me. Furthermore, this doesn’t help Google Voice as Apple is the one preventing this (they rejected their app) or streaming video apps like Slingplayer as there is no way AT&T is close to letting this happen. In my opinion, streaming video apps would crash their network so they just can’t let it happen Continue Reading…

Hope everyone is well. Added Face Off for calebcj85, Fast Times at Ridgemont High for 115sm2330, The Boondock Saints, The Goods: Live Hard Sell Hard and ET. On TV shows we started adding Reaper and Mad Men. Finales of True Blood and Hung should be up very soon along with Entourage. I also posted a number of links in the Forum so check there to see if your request has been met. Also, consider adding to your profile please. Most of the Forum links are through linkbucks which is slightly annoying but many uploaders use it to make a little extra cash. Hope you all appreciate that we only link directly to megaupload (no spam) and only to mp4 files.

So someone asked me why would you want to tether your iPhone? My reply was why wouldn’t you? Maybe your Comcast connection goes dead at home or you are on a five hour car trip with kids – its good to have options. And its sooooo easy that its perfect for idiots. Tethering is essentially using your iPhone as a modem. You plug it into a PC or Mac via USB and as long as you have a 3G connection, you have internet. All you need is OS 3.0 or higher on your iPhone, iTunes 8.2 or higher, Windows XP with at least Service Pack 2 (or Mac OS 10.5 or higher), and about 5 minutes to install one file. Update! This does not work with firmware 3.1.2 unless you patched commcenter file. This is more advanced to do. I’m looking into another idiot way and will let you know. In meantime the advanced way is here.We explain it all here with a video at the end showing how. Continue Reading…
