The iPhone Dev team finally released the 2.0 incarnation of their wellknown iPhone activation/jailbreak/unlocking tool.

Currently only available as a mac binary it allows users to do the following:

• iPhone (1st Gen) with 2.0 - Activated, Unlocked & Jailbroken, (with support for third party applications).
• iPod Touch with 2.0 - Activated & Jailbroken, (with support for third party applications).
• iPhone (3G) with 2.0 - Activated, Jailbroken (with  support for third party applications).

There is currently no 2.0 capable version of the Nullriver/RipDev Installer.app to install additional 3rd party applications but there is Cydia which allows that in a different approach.

If you are unable to edit your EDGE APN settings (e.g. you are on a legit iPhone carrier but with a nonlegit mobile data plan) you cannot just install some hack via your installer/cydia. There is just no such hack available yet.

You can work around this by downloading the official Apple iPhone configuration utility and create a profile attachment that contains your APN settings and mail this profile to your phone (and then execute that attachment). This will change your APN settings to those in the profile.

Legends of Norrath™ is a bigger hit than we had ever imagined and we want to thank all of you that have helped by introducing four new loot cards to Legends of Norrath Oathbound booster packs. There will be two new loot cards each for EverQuest and EverQuest II.

Check out the details here:

EverQuest

EverQuest II

These addition to the Legends of Norrath packs will be retro-active to the launch of the game. Therefore, these cards will be added to the collection of every person that opened a pack that would have contained these loot cards had they been included as part of the initial assortment. If you opened a pack that would have received one of the cards, it will be automatically granted to your LoN account.

For more information visit Legends of Norrath website.
