OpenSSH - installed on your iphone from Cydia
WinSCP or Cyberduck (or every other SSH Browser)
And the Updated GameCenter Pack-v2
Mobile Substrate - installed on your iphone from Cydia (you may already have it if you use Ultrasn0w to unlock your phone)

Settings for Cyberduck & WindSCP

Make sure iTunes is completely closed

Jailbreak for iOS 4.1 Will Be Untethered!

MuscleNerd, a member of the iPhone Dev-Team, has announced that the SHAtter jailbreak itself is tethered but comex has come up with a way to untether it!

Those reading between the lines: Yes SHAtter itself is tethered. @comex came up with a way to untether it on 4.1/3.2.2

SHAtter is yet another breed of exploit. Bootrom-based but requires userland 'assistance' for untethered boots (@comex did this for 4.1)

This is excellent news since a tethered jailbreak would require your iDevice to be connected to the computer for reboot.

The Greenp0ison jailbreak will be released October 10th at 10:10:10 GMT.

GreenPois0n iOS 4.1 jailbreak may launch Sunday at 10:10:10AM

Chronic dev team member, Joshua Hill, has tweeted the goods on GreenPois0n’s launch date. In case you didn’t read the title, the jailbreak for iOS 4.1 is coming this Sunday, Oct. 10, at 10:10:10 AM.



We still don’t really know anything about this jailbreak and hopefully it actually launches on time. Update: For iPad, iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4th gen.

Mercedes-Benz Demos Prototype iPad Docking Station

Mercedes-Benz demoed a prototype iPad docking station at the Paris Motor Show in an S-Class sedan.

According to BenzInsider, the plan is to launch the integration solution for the iPad onto the market for a variety of Mercedes models after development for series production.

Mounted on the back of the front seats at head restraint height, the holder significantly extends the usability of the iPad: the battery of the tablet PC begins to charge as soon as the device is placed in the holder. Once at the destination, it can be simply removed without having to be switched off, and during the journey all of the entertainment products stored on the iPad can continue to be used. The docking station can be turned and tilted to achieve the best viewing angle, and if the vehicle is fitted with the Mercedes-Benz InCar Hotspot then even an iPad without UMTS functionality can enjoy the benefit of a full connection to the Internet.
