Well, if you can’t beat ‘em, then just keep ‘em busy. That seems to be the thinking at Apple these days at least, which has ratcheted up its fight with the iPhone jailbreaking community once again by updating the bootrom on iPhone 3GS units that started shipping in the past week. That was apparently first discovered by Mathieulh and later verified by iPhone Dev Team member “Muscle Nerd,” who confirmed that the update (iBoot-359.3.2) renders the iPhone 3GS “impossible” to jailbreak for the time being. Of course, that time could well end up being fairly short, but if you just have to jailbreak a 3GS right now, you’ll probably want to try to track down some old stock or snap up a refurbished unit.

twitterwindows7Microsoft’s Windows 7 advertisements have certainly got people talking. Now they are stepping up another gear and aiming towards the social networking platform that is “Twitter”. On the 22nd of September, Microsoft announced on their Experience Blog that they were aiming to get 77,777 followers on Twitter for their profile MSWindows.

Microsoft giving away prizes on their twitter page has been around for a while ( even if the prize was just for 7 free pizzas ) but now they are giving away 1 free copy of Windows 7 to one of their original 42,777 followers. And from now, every 2000 additional followers they get, another follower will get a free copy of Windows 7 after the 22nd October release date

For those good at math, the more people we get to join, the more chances you (as a follower) have of winning a copy of Windows 7. All followers of @MSWindows are eligible, so those who have been loyal followers since the beginning are still in the running. Winners will receive their copy of Windows 7 they won after the Oct. 22 launch date.
