Like tears from a plump angel, more details about the next-gen iPod nano are gushing out; first up, you’ll have to get used to a new name (may I suggest iPod Tubbs?) since that’s apparently first on the list of alterations.  Memory sizes should be 8GB and 16GB NAND, while the OS will be a complete change to mobile OS X as seen on the iPhone.

Remember that crazy website claiming that they could fully unlock the iPhone, but they just needed another 48 hours to do it? Apparently they’ve stepped up to the plate and shown just what they can do.

Unlocked iPhone

They contacted the guys over at Engadget promising that they could in fact completely unlock the phone. After just a few minutes of installing the software, they had indeed made good on their claim.
