Here is a quick update on the upcoming Comex’s jailbreak for iPhone 4 and iOS 4 / 4.0.1. It was only yesterday when we informed you all that Comex in an interview said that he is “almost” done with the jailbreak and now he is waiting for Saurik (the creator of Cydia) to complete the last bits which are required for the jailbreak.

After a steady stream of Netbooks and entry-level laptops, it’s nice to slip behind the seat of a deluxe mobile powerhouse for a change. Alienware’s new M17x laptop jams pretty much any high-end component you can think of into an imposing, matte, black chassis, including an Intel Core 2 Quad Extreme QX9300 CPU, dual Nvidia GeForce GTX 280M GPUs, and 1TB of hard-drive space.
While the system starts at a reasonable $1,799, you’ll need to configure something closer to our $4,849 review unit to really get the benefit of Alienware’s years of experience making high-end gaming [...]
