Looks like the soon-to-be-released iPhone firmware 1.1.3 has quite a few surprises. We were able to get a look at it, and here is what we found:

The ability to send an SMS message to multiple people is now there

Google Maps application can now pinpoint your location using cell tower triangulation

Google Maps can now display the Hybrid map view

You can now drag and drop application icons on your home screen

The home screen supports pagination

You can now add web bookmarks to your home screen

That is all we have found for now. We also know that is you used AnySIM to unlock your phone, you can expect the 1.1.3 update to brick it. Good times. Take a look at our iPhone Firmware 1.1.3 Gallery for a photo tour of the new stuff.

And because GearLive is shockingly show and the pack of Apple Lawyers may be working at this time of the night, I have mirrored the larger images.

Apple have finally added the ability to modify Springboard and the Dock. You can have multiple pages of apps and applets as well.

Apps on the Springboard can be dragged, like Calculator in the photo.

Apps can be dragged out of and into the Dock.

You can now send an SMS to multiple contacts.

The toolbar of the Maps app has changed to include a Locate Me button and More Options button

Locate Me in action. It uses Cell Tower triangulation.

When pressing the More Options button, the map curls up to reveal the extra buttons.

More options have been added to the Safari bookmarks menu.

You are now able to add a bookmark as an applet on the Home screen.

It's just based on a port of the same kernel (Darwin)

What the hell? It uses the same kernel - ergo it deserves to use the same name. I doubt Windows Mobile / Windows CE shares any more or less with its desktop brother than the mobile version of OSX does, yet it shares the Windows name? Similarly, GNU/Linux is, essentially, just the kernel and all the other stuff that gets bundled with it is extra.. the kernel by itself is still GNU/Linux!

Anyway.. yeah.. nice features. I really keep thinking about an iPhone but the contract costs just scare me off. Just gotta hope they re-work the tarrifs eventually or the next firmware version is EASILY breakable. I'd pay the ?279 for one (though I do get ?10 off with education discount.. woo) but I just don't want to pay O2's prices for the tarrifs!:(:(

None of those features interest me what so ever, They have either been done using third party apps or they're useless. Im still on 1.1.1 personally. Im too lazy to upgrade.

Apple needs to get off their lazy buts and make video recording

It can be done

they just found out that 1.1.2 clocks yoru hardware slight faster btw so if you were looking for an excuse to go through the trouble of updating/jailbreaking there you go

Actually, I heard the clock is slower to save power but the software is more optimized in 1.1.2.

Also, this update is fine for non-jailbreakers but for those of us who have Jailbroken iPhones/ iPods. We've been doing all this for a while.

this is my source take it with a grain of salt is one of those rumor sites:

Nice update, and for what its worth, its not called Touch OS X. Its just called OS X :)

For what it's worth, Touch OS X makes for a better headline. It's easier to identify which version of OS X the topic is talking about. But technically speaking, yes it is called OS X.

sorry to be so picky, but the kernel by itself is Linux, the entire system together with the GNU applications is GNU/Linux

    • IBM reveals sub-1nm chip technology, production expected in another 5 years

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      IBM reveals sub-1nm chip technology, production expected in another 5 years by Pradeep Viswanathan TSMC is now leading the chip manufacturing industry with its 2nm-class process node called N2. Samsung Foundry also has a 2nm-class process node called SF2. TSMC says N2 entered volume production in Q4 2025. Samsung says SF2 started mass production in 2025. Today, IBM announced the world’s first sub-1-nanometer chip technology, marking another major semiconductor research milestone. The new technology is based on a 0.7nm, or 7-angstrom, node and uses a new transistor architecture called “nanostack.” The new design vertically stacks and staggers nanosheet-based transistors so that more components can fit into the same chip area while also improving performance and power efficiency. IBM claims that this new sub-1nm chip can pack nearly 100 billion transistors onto a chip the size of a fingernail. This offers almost twice the density, up to 50 percent higher performance, or 70 percent better energy efficiency when compared to IBM's 2nm node design announced back in 2021. Also, IBM mentioned that this new architecture can deliver 40 percent SRAM scaling. It is important to consider that this announcement from IBM is a research milestone rather than a near-term process node launch. Back in 2021, IBM unveiled the world’s first 2nm chip design, claiming 50 billion transistors on a fingernail-sized chip and major performance and efficiency gains. Five years later, IBM’s 2nm technology has still not entered mainstream commercial production. That is because IBM is no longer a major commercial chip manufacturer. It sold its chip manufacturing business to GlobalFoundries years ago and has since then focused only on semiconductor research, IP development, and partnerships. To productize its 2-nm chip technology, IBM partnered with Japan’s Rapidus, but it has not resulted in anything shipping at scale. IBM says that its new sub-1nm technology can reach production as early as within the next five years. If that happens, it will likely depend on manufacturing partners, advanced EUV tooling, and years of yield improvements.

      It's funny when thieves accuse other thieves of stealing. Ai companies just blatantly siphoned all the knowledge of the internet without consent and are now selling it with their service... so excuse me if I find this a bit ironic.
