GreenPoisOn Jailbreak for iOS 4.1 Fake

There are an awful lot of people waiting for the Chronic Dev Team to
release the GreenPoisOn jailbreak for their iPhone 4 or iPod Touch 4G
and also the unlock tool for iOS 4.1. News today though was that
because the Team are working so hard on the jailbreak the unlock tool
may be delayed further. However that's good news for those wanting the
jailbreak as soon as possible.

However we now hear that because they know that people are so avidly
awaiting the jailbreak, some spammers are using the situation and that
a spam campaign has begun to circulate which pushes a Trojan Virus
with a fake GreenPoisOn tool, according to MyGadgetNews, sourced from
Kapersky Labs.

People that try to use the fake GreenPoisOn jailbreak will actually be
downloading a Trojan Virus which could steal passwords, usernames and
bank information from their computers. Apparently other fake jailbreak
sites for iOS 4.1 are also springing up so you must be careful what
you open on your computer.

Presently there is no working jailbreak for iOS 4.1 or 4.0.2 available
for the iPhone 4 so if you find something that looks promising make
sure to check it out as a legitimate source first. We'll try to keep
you informed when the legit jailbreak for iOS 4.1 is available. For
more on this go to mygadgetnews.com. Why not send us your comments
about jailbreaking iOS 4.1.

iPad, Apple's 'Mac of the masses'

Gene Munster with Piper Jaffray said Thursday he believes the the iPad is poised to outsell the Mac in 2011. He had previously called for 14.5 million iPads to be sold in 2011, but now sees Apple selling 21 million.

"We believe the iPad represents a meaningful product category for Apple as a secondary computing device for those who already have a primary computer, a primary device for those who could not previously afford a Mac, and the first Apple product that will be a success in the enterprise," he wrote. "We see the iPad as the Mac for the masses."

His prediction is based on three factors: increased supply and expanded distribution channels, international rollout and adoption in price-sensitive markets, and uptake in the enterprise sector.

Munster said that increased presence of the iPad in retail stores will help to drive sales. Best Buy recently announced that it will expand iPad sales to all its U.S. stores this week, while Target is rumored to sell the device beginning next month.

Earlier this month, the iPad launched in China and 5 Latin American countries. In these "price-sensitive markets," the iPad is more likely to be used as a primary computing device by people who could not previously afford a Mac, Munster said.

Finally, he said the iPad has the potential to take the largest percentage of its sales from enterprise customers. He noted that the company revealed in June that more than 50 percent of the Fortune 100 are deploying or testing the iPad.

Munster believes Apple will control 94 percent o the worldwide tablet market in calendar year 2010, with 10.7 million of the total 11.3 million tablet sales for the year. In the future, he sees Android as the iPad's primary competition, as the next 3.0 release, codenamed "Gingerbread," is said to support tablet devices.

Piper Jaffray has increased its price target for AAPL stock to $390, with revenue estimates increased from $78.96 billion to $83.13 billion. The calendar year 2011 earnings per share estimate has also been increased from $16.87 to $17.75.
