FORUMS TOPIC

Winulous, the new addition to the "-ous" family!

Hope you guys realized this was an april fools joke :D

They brought you installous, appulous, hackulous, grabulous, crackulous, now they are bringing you winulous.
What is Winulous?
It's having a "dumbed" down version of Windows 2000 on your iPod/iPhone

As of now it comes with only a few working applications (minesweeper and solitaire) but in the coming weeks, there should be frequent updates for new applications!

Requirements
Winulous works for all devices iPod Touch 1G&2G iPhone 2G&3G.
You must be on firmware 2.2.1, because it has not been tested on any other firmware.

Future Plans
They are planning on making a "dumbed" down version of Mac OS X and Linux.

How Do I get it?
If you have installous, you already have the source added, but if you don't the source is
http://cydia.hackulo.us Once you add that source just search for "Winulous"

Faster than Cydia and installer, made by RIPDEV, ICY!


It's here!

Icy is a lightweight, fast, and cool looking source manager for Cydia sources. What makes it better? No more "reloading sources" everytime you open up Cydia. This program makes installing an app you would get from cydia fast, easy, and painless.

What else is new?
As you can see above, you can use icy in landscape mode too, making it very user-friendly.

How do I get it?
  • If you would like to get it through Cydia you will need to add a new source.Go to manage-->Sources-->Edit(top right)-->Add(top left) and enter the following URL http://apt.ripdev.com then click add. Once you are done adding the source search for Icy and install it and Voila you have it.
  • If you would like to get it through Installer just go to the System category and it should be there.
More quick facts
  • Cydia takes up 32mb of space. Icy takes up a little more than 1mb
  • Everything on Icy is black and white(which looks super cool) to keep it running fast
  • Animated Download screens that actually tell you what's happening unlike cydia download screen
  • Does not refresh sources automatically- you must decide yourself when you want to refresh them!(VERY IMPORTANT to refresh periodically)
Enjoy :D

Apple announces Worldwide Developers Convention, The countdown to New iPhone and Snow Leopard



Mark your calendar folks, June 8-12 in San Francisco are Apple days. The Worldwide Developers convention was confirmed to be on those dates. What does that mean? Well, last year at the same event the iPhone 3G made its first appearance, so we are hoping that we will some new hardware this year. Hopefully, the new iPhone, iPod Touch, or even a new Mac! Steve Jobs was at a leave of absence from Apple because of sickness, and June is when he said he'd be back, so new hardware would be the perfect way to start off again. Snow Leopard is a new operating system for Macs that should be spectacular. Well, that's all the info I have right now, for more information click the following link:
