iPhone 2.0.1
August 11th, 2008
Now I’m on the latest iphone 2.0.1 firmware(Thanks goes to Winpwn 2.0.4). And everything works flawlessly. Compared with 2.0, the biggest improvements i’ve found is the app launch speed is much faster. You may get more other 2.0.1 improvements here.
One more advantage of going to 2.0.1 is having both Installer 4.0 beta(youtube video) and Cydia on the phone. I don have any high expectation on it, just can’t wait to try it out myself 
Even if not all of the old iphone 1.1.x apps has been ported to 2.0.x, still lots of apps there waiting for you. I myself have’t got enough time to try them yet, you may get it from the screenshot above. For now i installed iCosta PinYin, BossPrefs, Chinese Carrier bundles and two games.
One more thing, with Winpwn 2.0.4, i’ve resized the space for the apps from the default 300M to 700M, which means, i can install the apps as many as I want

Wikipedia Is Live Now In China
August 1st, 2008
just learned from Xianguo Iphone(in Chinese) that the GFW-long-blocked Wikipedia has come to live. I tried the English and Chinese version and both work well.
The reason? I’m not sure, perhaps it’s because the around-the-corner Olympic Games.
Even though the access to the internet has proved still not completely open and free, those very knowledge intensive websites like wikipedia have got the chances of being unblocked by the government, at least during Games.
and here’s the screenshot.

Chasing iPhone 2? Perhaps.
June 4th, 2008
iPhone 2 DOES has some new features which is really attractive to me, like native support to Chinese in Email and IME, like GPS, etc. Exchange support, not so much. I have no plan to use personal my iPhone to check those company emails.
Even though so far the 3-rd party apps cannot be allowed to be running, I’m pretty sure it’s a matter of time. I do have a strong belief on those very talented guys in the community like the iPhone Dev Team, even I have completely no idea of who they are, where they come from and how they look like.
Perhaps, I should start thinking of reselling my iPhone, just like everyone else. The best target is someone here in Beijing,China.
Actually my iPhone works pretty good in every functionality. No physical damage at all. If you decide to get it you will also have my full support in my convenient time. Software only,btw.
Make Wordpress Grey To Mourn Quake Victims
May 20th, 2008
The following is the how-to, which is IE only.
Add the following corlored code to your theme’s header.php, right after <header>. Mine looks like this:
<head profile=”http://gmpg.org/xfn/11“>
<style>
html { filter:gray }
</style>
Or just filter:grey; to your body definition part in the style.css, which has no effect on the looking of the sidebar.
Update(May.22,2008): back to normal now. Thanks for your understanding and patience.
