As much as I love the iPhone, it certainly has a few quirks. My number one complaint is the ridiculous recessed headphone jack that won’t fit nearly any headphone plug, other than skinny iPhone and iPod headphones. And it’s not like this was some naïve accident that Apple didn’t know about… since the first day [...]
There have been some questions as to the security implications of the “web installer” available for installing the XBMC iPhone Remote and other XBMC applications.

So, I’ve already managed to “crash” the iPhone, but of course since it runs “OS X” with protected memory and all that fun stuff (and this wasn’t a kernel panic), the crash consisted of Safari closing and returning to the home screen, not completely freezing like my RAZR always did whenever I would try to [...]
