Jailbroken iPad now has voice controls

I wish they would release the jailbreak already

I love my iPad but this could add so much

Kuribo's Shoe · April 2010

so did this guy get black bagged yet

Abracadaniel · April 2010

Apple has a plane in the air, ready to drop the paralegals into Gizmodo HQ

(this is not my joke)

Kuribo's Shoe · April 2010

I mean considering what they did to a guy who leaked a fucking firewire box I have to admire the balls on that guy and that site

pablo_price · April 2010

Gizmodo has supposedly ID'd the guy who lost that prototype.
Went to my school and graduated the year that I would have, so I probably had a ton of freshman/soph classes with him. Don't recognize him by the picture they include, but that pic may have well been captioned "generic white engineering student."

Abracadaniel · April 2010

just about to post the same thing

So

What happens now? :o

syndalis · April 2010

Oh my god, Gizmodo is full of Assholes.

Why the fuck would you do this to the guy?

Abracadaniel · April 2010

besides of course Gizmodo is trying to spin the story into the "guy who lost it" instead of "the guy who took it, knowing who it belonged to, and sold it to Gizmodo."

Abracadaniel · April 2010

And Gizmodo is never

fucking

ever

getting into another Apple event

Ashcroft · April 2010

I hope they don't fire the guy. But they probably will.

lawsuit

Campion · April 2010

Wouldn't the smart thing for a journalist company be to return th phone and receive mad props from apple?

Sars_Boy · April 2010

i dont know if i would consider a gawker blog a journalist company

Abracadaniel · April 2010

well, whatever integrity they had is gone

yeah, they just ruined this guys career, and trashed him all over the tech world right now.

He is unhirable.

He should be able to sue for his salary * the number of years until retirement compounded with damages for this.

Ashcroft · April 2010

They should charge the guy who "found" the phone and have them charged with selling stolen goods.

gizmodo isn't really that professional

No, that is like the opposite of journalism.

Monkeyfeet · April 2010

I'm sure Gizmodo knew what they were getting into

Ashcroft · April 2010

You can't blame Gizmondo for for taking up a chance to see a leaked apple product. But there is no need to tell everyone the name of the guy that lost it. He has enough problems right now.

Faricazy · April 2010

Gawker tends to operate under a sort of renegade stance at times. Meh.

You guys are making it sound like Apple didn't know HE lost it. Of course they know.

But Syn's comment about "him being unhireable" may be on to something.

Not if doing so potentially brings more journalistic coverage for Apple products. They'd get something out of the deal, right?

undeinPirat · April 2010

gizmodo just went to lawsuitville in an awful hurry

Usagi · April 2010

Way to be a colossal dick Gizmodo

Monkeyfeet · April 2010

I'm in complete favor of Gizmodo. Fuck the moralizers

No, they would never get anything out of a deal with Apple. Apple doesn't do media exclusives.

And playing softball to get premium access is why every last television news program today is fucking terrible.

thedude_frombaywatch · April 2010

I live in San Jose and I have to admit. My co workers jumped on this guys name pretty damn quick

I was obviously out of the loop so as usual I had to read about it here!

KalTorak · April 2010

Why the FUCK would they trumpet his name all over the internet?

undeinPirat · April 2010

i'm in shock of this really

they just blacklisted this guy from an industry basically

Monkeyfeet · April 2010

I am a little confused as to why they needed to do anything more than break the news though.

KalTorak · April 2010

Also it's pretty fucking rich that they make such a big deal of hiding the actual...THIEF'S identity, in an article completely dedicated to compromising the Apple guy's identity.

Faricazy · April 2010

oh hey dudes LOnelyPlanet is giving out a bunch of european ipod guides for free due to the volcano

lonely plant guides are great

I curious to see if he gets fired from Apple

Karma, maaan. Karma.

Frank Brak · April 2010

I'm curious about where this phone's been for the past month since they're saying that the phone was found in March

Baroque And Roll · April 2010

Holy shit.

I already hated Gizmodo for their unbridled cock-sucking of Apple products, but this is just despicable.

I mean, really. What possessed them to think that this was at all an idea that wasn't fucking horrible?
