Jeroen, regarding performance, anything looks OK when your site takes many seconds to load... (

vs. Dave's: http://webpagetest.org/result/090825_24FA/

I'd suggest having a peek at http://code.google.com/speed/page-speed/

Also, you can see the problem Dave is talking about performance-wise in the "Repeat View".

EDIT: speaking of issues, Disqus lost track of who I was replying to after I logged in.

RE: Jailbreak.

I helped develop iPHUC, but I still think you're wrong on this one. on the mac you can download any .app from the internet (zipped, but auto unzip when it's finished) and double click it - functionality built in to the OS. jailbreaking is significantly more difficult and requires third party tools, plus it has to be re-done every update.

Face it, modifying the firmware is a hack. We should not *need* to jailbreak just to use apps that push the system beyond where apple is comfortable taking it.

Awesome ideas. unfortunately your smartquotes ruin a lot of the scripts and I had to do some regexps with textmate to clean them up. your blog shouldn't be transcribing quotes inside of a CODE tag into smart quotes. might want to investigate!

7-zip's native file format is superior to .rar in SUBSTANTIAL amounts.
