A UK based developer & hacker Hexxeh, the same genius who showed us a demo some weeks ago with Chromium Os running on the iPad, has struck again and this time its even bigger! In a recently released video by him, the open source implementation of Apple’s iBoot for iPhone and iPod touch named OpeniBoot, has been successfully demoed on the iPad. For those who don’t know, OpeniBoot is currently being used to allow installation of Android on iPhone 3G, iPhone 2G and 1st Gen. iPod Touch. Read more...

It’s clearly obvious that apps on iOS are just a different ball game altogether when compared to their Android versions. Take the Facebook app as an example. Although it got an upgrade yesterday, it still doesn’t match the speed and features of its iOS version. Similarly, Twitter for Android has also received an upgrade, bringing it on par to its iOS sibling in terms of feature set.
