Apple News | Two New Ports Found on Latest iPad 2 Cases

Tuesday, 18th January 2011, 02:01 am
The latest iPad 2 cases to appear online have cutouts for two new ports, according to AppleInsider and M.I.C Gadget. "We got a look on the new iPad 2 case, and surprisingly, it features two new holes, one in the upper left (when viewed from the front) and the another in the upper-middle", says M.I.C Gadget. However, unlike the previous "alibaba" cases, the newest case design to surface shows a very distinct cutout on the rear upper left corner (a blank area on the current iPad) that appears to be consistent with the size of an SD Card slot. The new case also depicts a cutout on the center of the top edge that appears to be the size of a mini DisplayPort jack, located between the camera hole and the headphone port, reports AppleInsider. Engadget recently reported that the iPad 2 would feature an SD card slot giving some credence to these reports. [AppleInsider] [M.I.C Gadget] [via MacRumors]

Apple Asks Federal Government to Stop iPhone Jailbreaking

Apple has approached the federal government to help stop hackers from jailbreaking the iPhone, reports NBC.

A spokesperson from Apple told the US Copyright Office that "Current jailbreak technologies now in widespread use utilize unauthorized modifications to the copyrighted bootloader and operating system, resulting in the infringement of the copyrights in those programs".

This action of Apple has come after Sony recently filed a lawsuit against the well known iPhone hacker Geohot for jailbreaking PlayStation 3.

It is also to be noted here that in July last year, the United States government ruled in the favor of iPhone jailbreaks and unlocks as legal, as long as they were not used for piracy purposes. Full details of this new DMCA legislation can be read here.
