We loved the Twitlonger for when we needed to say more than 140 characters to express ourselves. But in an update to Twitter for iPhone last year, support for twitlonger was removed completely. Bigarella has been working on the same idea for the all new shiny & glossy  Tweetbot client for iPhone & iPod touch. Pastie for tweetbot adds an extra button to the user-interface while you compose a tweet longer then 140 characters. If triggered, the tweet is sent to pastie and a link is posted with your partial tweet.

Here are some screenshots:

The tweak has been through all the development stages and the beta version is now in hands of the testers. You can download the beta version from Cydia via the iSpazio repo for free.

You can follow JailbreakNews on twitter or follow the author of this post here.

Developer Joshua Hill, aka p0sixninja, recently tweeted “Things have progressed to the point where we don’t expect anymore roadblocks. ETA for greenpois0n is 10/10/10 at 10:10:10AM”.

While it’s important to remember that this is only an estimated release date and our friend chpwn puts it into decent perspective “Please note that an ETA is, by definition, an estimate. There may still be delays, although we will try for there not to be any.” Chpwn has been working with Saurik on improving Cydia, but by the sounds of it, it will not be ready to be released alongside the greenpois0n release, but it will be something else to look forward to after jailbreaking.

MyStrings was released a few months ago back in early June. There have been many features added since then including icon fonts, colors, and sizes. Toggles for battery percentage, and ability to edit the carrier. Also there have been some support updates, to allow it to work on every device!

2.0 has been being worked on for awhile, and is getting very close to release. There are just a couple more features going into this tweak, and some support issues being fixed and everyone will be able to get a hold of the new and improved MyStrings 2.0!

Some features that have been added into this release is FULL language support, a few more apps have been added to the “Applications” section, it has been completely remade so that it has device specific codes, so that devices like iPads, and iPod Touchs dont have the “iPhone Only” sections. There were also other specification codes added in so that if you dont have one of the apps in the “Applications” section it wont show up, which makes it run faster because it doesnt have to load up the extra, unneeded applications.

There is no set date for release, but follow the developers @MarksiPodTouch and @Nazaroth to keep updated with this tweak!

After months of silence, Geohot has finally published a new blog post in which he talks about iPhone 4 jailbreak situation, limera1n, and Pwned4life exploit which he recently talked about at the Nuit Du Hack conference in Paris. According to his latest blog post, Geohot has managed to jailbreak the iPhone 4.

Got one of these in the mail today and figured I’d give it a shot.

As far as a release goes, it probably won’t happen from me. limera1n is little more than a raindrop on a website; it was never mentioned by me previous to this post. pwned4life is a complete invention of some blogger in a basement somewhere. When I said pwned for life, I was referring to the original iPhone, 3G, and Touch; which of course are, by the aptly named PwnageTool.

As for the release dates, it probably wont happen from him. Comex’s Spirit like jailbreak tool is still the most likely candidate for the release, which will probably happen once Apple rolls out the new iOS 4.0.1 /4.1 firmware update for iPhone 4, 3GS and 3G.

As always, stay tuned here on JaibreakNews and we’ll keep you updated.
