It looks like Microsoft is embracing the homebrew interest its new mobile phone platform is garnering. Already taking initiative by meeting with members of the team behind ChevronWP7 — a jailbreak and unlock app for Windows Phone 7 — Microsoft has extended an offer to one of the iPhone scene’s finest.
Brandon Watson, the self described “Entrepreneur on loan to Microsoft,” reached out to George Hotz, aka Geohot, offering him a free phone in an attempt to lure him into the WP7 arena.
To me this reeks of a calculated move to get more people talking about Microsoft’s mobile offerings, as Apple continues to make headlines in the mobile landscape…

Lately, a slew of jailbreak tweaks have hit the Cydia store, and PageLock is one the more interesting ones in that bunch. PageLock is just that, interesting, but not necessarily useful, or even desirable for that matter.
The basic premise of PageLock is to lock your iPhone’s Home screen to just one page. In essence, that means no swiping from page to page, whatsoever.
That can be kind of cool, especially mixed with other jailbreak tweaks like SpringJumps, but it certainly takes some of the “iPhone” out of the iPhone, if you know what I mean.
Page swiping is one of the iPhone’s most essential features; it’s on an iconic level. Getting rid of such a feature takes some of the fun out of using the iPhone, as you’ll notice in this First Look video…

There are many jailbreak tweaks that allow you to map the iPhone’s volume buttons to the camera shutter. As far as I’m concerned, though, none of them have as much potential as CameraButtons.
CameraButtons takes the essential functionality of past tweaks, and ramps it up a few notches. Not only can you control your shutter with the iPhone’s physical buttons, but you can also map a plethora of other camera-based functions to them as well.
If you’re an avid user of the iPhone’s stock camera, then you’re going to want to check out this video of CameraButtons in action…
