Come saprete, l’applicazione Skype per iPhone ha ricevuto oltre 1 milione di download in soli 2 giorni, ed in seguito a questi avvenimenti, abbiamo visto che l’operatore T-Mobile ha bloccato l’accesso a questi servizi, tramite la propria rete dati. Oggi è arrivata la contromossa di Skype che offre un ulteriore incentivo ai nuovi utenti.

In particolare, tutti i nuovi utenti che si registreranno a Skype, potranno beneficiare di una chiamata gratuita (con la durata massima di 5 minuti), oppure di un SMS, sempre gratuito, verso l’Italia o qualsiasi altro Paese estero. L’offerta per tutte le persone che decidono di registrarsi a Skype dal computer o dall’iPhone.

Aue Nature e Aislelyn Art sono due raccolte gratuite di wallpaper per iPhone, disponibili gratuitamente su Cydia.

Con Aue Nature (immagine in alto) i vari wallpaper verranno automaticamente inseriti nel rullino dell’iPhone, in modo da poterli impostare come sfondo. Per installare Aue Nature dovete aggiungere la source http://macciti.com/cydia/

Aislelyn Art, invece, li aggiungerà direttamente nella sezione Sfondi delle impostazioni iPhone. Source: http://macciti.com/cydia/

Nuova offerta lanciata da Skype (valida sia su Pc/Mac che su iPhone): i nuovi utenti che si iscriveranno al servizio potranno effettuare gratuitamente la prima telefonata (verso un numero fisso o mobile).

L’offerta è valida per tutti i nuovi utenti che scaricano l’applicazione e creano un nuovo account Skype: entro 30 gioni dal download si potrà utilizzare il servizio SkypeOut gratuitamente per la prima telefonata (durata max 5 minuti) o il primo Sms, in tutto il mondo, sia verso numeri fissi che mobili.

Non sarà una grande offerta, ma la segnaliamo soprattutto per invitare chi ancora non lo abbia fatto a creare un account Skype ed utilizzare questo fantastico servizio.

Microsoft ads tweaking Mac buyers as wacky, spendthrift, fashion-focused "cool kids." The paper of record goes after the iPhone. Pirates at the gates of the App Store. Yes, that smell in the air is the familiar fragrance "Eau d' Pomme Retour" -- the springtime scent of Apple-bashing.

It's time to come and hang out where everybody knows your name, or at least your Talkshoe handle: the TUAW talkcast is back tonight after a week's hiatus (we're all feeling much better, thanks ever so). Join us at 10 pm ET tonight for a roundtable discussion (including your questions, comments, and rants) covering the Apple news of the week -- including the range of naysayers going after the Apple brand with gusto.

To participate on TalkShoe, you can use the browser-only client, or you can try out the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client; however, for maximum fun, you should call in. For the web UI, just click the "TalkShoe Web" button on our profile page at 10 pm Sunday. To call in on regular phone or VOIP lines (take advantange of your free cellphone weekend minutes if you like): dial (724) 444-7444 and enter our talkcast ID, 45077 -- during the call, you can request to talk by keying in *-8. Talk with you then!

Recording support for the talkcast is provided by Call Recorder from ecamm networks.

Aislelyn Art is a collection of eight wallpapers all created by Aislelyn. Some are pretty abstract the others are just kind of funky…check out the screenshots below. Remember, when you install wallpapers they are added on your iPhone or iPod Touch in your Settings application under Wallpapers. And they are located in the Library/Wallpaper folder when SSH’d into your iPhone or iPod Touch. You can get this wallpaper pack via the MacCiti source.

Relax is a nice, calm theme that contains 34 icons, a dock, a wallpaper and a lock screen background. One thing to note about this theme is that when you install it, the theme’s iTunes icon does not display…it is in the file, it is just named incorrectly. If you are comfortable with SSH…you can SSH into the Library/Themes/Relax Theme/Icons folder and rename the icon file Itunes to iTunes…then it will show up correctly. Also, the red badge just does not go with this theme…I would have loved to have seen a nice semi-transparent badge (or maybe one that matched a little better!). But, it is still a nice theme that is easy on the eyes! You can get this theme via the iSpazio source.

How to Install

1. Your device must be jailbroken. (how?)
2. Make sure you have WinterBoard installed via Cydia.
2. Make sure you have the iSpazio source installed in Cydia.
