The team is still working out the particulars of the unlock and rightfully wants to do it correctly the first time. It will however jailbreak the 3G while maintaining App Store support and unlock your iPhone classic running the 2.0 firmware. [iPhone Dev Team Blog] Thanks Mehmet!

Dealzmodo: Microsoft Xbox 360 Premium for $200 [Dealzmodo]

Of course it’s a refurb, but it’s tough to pass up an Xbox 360 Premium (non-HDMI, wireless controller, 20GB hard drive) for $200. With free shipping and a 60-Day limited warranty, it’s certainly a tempting way to take your chances with a formerly red-ringed system. Then again, $100 more will probably get you a more current (cooler) chipset and full-out Microsoft support. Seeing as I don’t know anyone who owns a 360 that HASN’T broken in some way, a newer system might actually be worth the price. [Buy via CrunchGear]

We showed you the impressive RGBy tabletop last year, but designers Makoto Hirahara and Shinya Matsuyama have gone and commercialized a new chameleon color-change lamp. The RBGy lamp is a simple battery-powered gizmo that changes color to match whatever object you’ve got it sitting on. You simply press to capture, and it duplicates the color by varying its LED illumination. It’s hard to think of a purpose for it, other than impressing your date by matching the moodlighting to her dress… but there are cheaper ways to impress, given that each 2.75-inch steel and plastic lamp costs $199.

The HTC Diamond isn’t even out yet in the US, but a leaked pic shown over at BoyGeniusReports seems to show that HTC is planning a new version that doesn’t have the Diamond’s trademark crinkly, angular shape. The smooth-sided, round-reared phone is dubbed “Victor” apparently, and seems to be in each function identical to the Diamond. Except being perhaps a little less pointy to hold. [BGR]
