<p>If you&#8217;ve recently jailbroken your <a class="zem_slink" title="iPhone" rel="homepage" href="http://www.apple.com/iphone">iPhone</a>, read on. If you haven&#8217;t, stop &#8212; this article won&#8217;t help you. If you&#8217;re still reading this, you&#8217;re probably frustrated because everytime you close the MBP&#8217;s lid, it just cycles from sleep-&gt;awake over and over again. This is because you applied <a class="zem_slink" title="Mac OS X" rel="homepage" href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/">OS X</a> 10.5.5&#8217;s IOUSBFamily-315.4.1.pkg to your computer to Jailbreak your iPhone in DFU mode. But you FORGOT to reapply OS X 10.5.6&#8217;s IOUSBFamily-327.4.0.pkg to your laptop. It&#8217;s easy to forget this step when you&#8217;ve just jailbroken your iPhone and all. Just a heads up <img src='http://www.vuquoc.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>You can <a title="Download These to allow 10.5.6 to put the iPhone in DFU mode." href="http://developer.apple.com/hardwaredrivers/download/usbdebug.html" target="_blank">download both the IOUSBFamily-315.4.1.pkg and IOUSBFamily-327.4.0.pkg here</a>, but you&#8217;ll need to sign up for an <a class="zem_slink" title="Apple" rel="homepage" href="http://www.apple.com">Apple</a> Developer Account first (it&#8217;s free!).</p>

<p>Have you ever been to an amateur comedy club? Nope? Neither have I. Although I&#8217;d imagine buying a new <a class="zem_slink" title="MacBook Pro" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro">MacBook Pro</a> from Apple is a lot like going to one. You pay an overpriced amount of money to sit in on some great skits (conceptually) but the delivery is always terrible. That&#8217;s what owning a new MacBook Pro is like, well at least for anyone who also owns a 30&#8243; <a class="zem_slink" title="Apple Cinema Display" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Cinema_Display">Apple Cinema Display</a>. You buy an expensive cinema display, then you upgrade your existing MacBook Pro (which I might note COMES with a standard dual-dvi port) to a new pretty model with new features &#8212; only to find out you&#8217;ll need to wait 4-5 weeks for a Dual-<a class="zem_slink" title="Digital Visual Interface" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Visual_Interface">DVI</a> Mini connector. To add insult to injury, it also costs $99. Wow Apple, way to bend me over and have your way with me.</div>

<p>What the hell was <a class="zem_slink" title="Apple" rel="crunchbase" href="http://www.crunchbase.com/company/apple">Apple</a> thinking when they released the <a class="zem_slink" title="iPhone" rel="crunchbase" href="http://www.crunchbase.com/product/iphone">iPhone</a> 3G with a clear plastic gloss on the back? I remember opening the damn box, removing the safety plastic, breathing on the phone and it immediately developing scratches. I&#8217;ve seen ice cream that&#8217;s harder than the iPhone. So I decided to get a case &#8212; but I hate cases! Your choices are limited to 2 or 3 clear protectors. All of them are applied by washing your hands, getting them soapy wet, getting piece of film wet with soap water and applying it to the iPhone. Of course, the next three hours are spent cursing at the sticky film as it either slips off or gets stuck in a horrible misalignment.</p>
<p>I bought two of them, because I&#8217;m a baller like that. The <a href="http://www.bestskinsever.com">Best Skin Ever</a> and the <a href="http://www.zagg.com/">InvisibleSHIELD</a>. Lets cut to the chase, the Best Skin Ever, really is &#8212; the best skin ever. Here&#8217;s why:</p>
<ul>
<li>The BSE is the same exact material as the InvisibleSHIELD and provides the same amount of protection.</li>
<li>The BSE&#8217;s cutout makes it much easier to apply the skin at the corners and has some amount of adjustability.</li>
<li>The BSE is $8 + shipping versus $25 for the InvisibleSHIELD.</li>
<li>The InvisibleSHIELD&#8217;s film has an odd texture to it that makes your iPhone look like it has a bad paintjob.</li>
<li>The InvisibleSHIELD takes anywhere from 10-14 days to arrive, versus 5-7 for the BSE.</li>
<li>Both make your iPhone stick to glass.</li>
</ul>
<p>That&#8217;s all you need to know. Get the Best Skin Ever.</p>
