NASA is no stranger to apps , but the space agency is branching out further into some new territory with its two latest offerings: a pair of educational games. The first is Sector 33 , an air traffic control simulator for iOS devices that certainly won’t be confused with Flight Control , but which NASA hopes will help teach math and possibly get folks interested in aviation. Those who prefer their games a bit more casual can also now try out NASA’s very first multiplayer Facebook game, Space Race Blast Off , which tests folks’ knowledge of various space-related topics (and is considerably more challenging than it first appears).

Whited00r lets you install iOS 5 look-alike on old-gen iPhones and iPod Touches
It’s just a few weeks since pod2g revealed his untethered jailbreak for iOS 5 and — boom — all of a sudden it’s up for the DL. The exploit has been incorporated into redsn0w 0.9.10, the Pwnage Tool and Chronic Devteam’s Cydia package, and it works on the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 (including the CDMA version), iPad 1, iPod Touch 3G and iPod Touch 4G, so long as they’ve been updated to iOS 5.0.1. Meanwhile, pod2g is reportedly now looking for a way to snap the shackles on A5-based devices too, but hopefully only after he’s taken some rest — a burned-out jailbreaker is no good to anybody

Showing your friends the latest viral video traditionally requires huddling around a smartphone or tablet, which is odd when you’re sat in a room with a 40-inch flat-screen. Web connected TVs or media units like the Apple TV will let you watch YouTube as long as you spend five minutes tediously inputting the search term on your remote. For those of us who can’t afford a unified Airplay setup, there’s PacketVideo’s Twonky Beam Browser, which lets you push mobile content to your TV as fast as your wireless router can handle it

While fragmentation is a rare(r) problem on iOS there’s still quite a few users rocking older versions on their devices. Unfortunately for them, ever since a recent update on the 16th they haven’t been able to download any new apps from the App Store straight to their devices. While users of older iPod Touches and iPhones stuck on 3.1.3 by choice or incompatibility with newer OSes can still update the apps they already have and transfer software from iTunes on a computer, they can’t buy or install new ones directly from the device.
