Reminder: Win a Tablet of your choice from TouchType Posted: 09 Apr 2011 08:30 AM PDT Just a reminder, folks that to celebrate 1 million downloads of their SwiftKey keyboard app, TouchType is giving away a tablet each to THREE lucky winners! Which tablets? Whichever the winner chooses so long as they’re available for purchase for up to $800 where he or she lives. iPad 2, PlayBook, Xoom, Galaxy Tab are all on the table. How do you enter? TouchType has put together a small survey which shouldn’t take more than five or ten minutes to complete. That’s it – well, that and a quick perusal of the official entry rules just to make sure you’re eligible (sorry minors and SPE employees). The contest is open to readers of Android Central, CrackBerry.com, TiPb, and WPCentral and ends at midnight Pacific on April 14. Not familiar with TouchType? You may have also seen that TouchType made a splash at this year’s CTIA with their tablet keyboard for Honeycomb - that’s coming soon, but SwiftKey is available now for Android devices. So get cracking on the survey, folks – these tablets aren’t going to give themselves away. Reminder: Win a Tablet of your choice from TouchType is a story by TiPb.

If so, do you like songs with lyrics or do you prefer instrumentals? Do you keep things musical or do you sometimes go with soundboard clips for that comedic effect? Video game themes, movie themes, rock, hip hop, special effect sounds, celebrity tag lines, sports jingles? Let us know what you’re using and for those of us looking for some cool new ringtones, what would you recommend? TiPb Asks: What’s your iPhone ringtone? is a story by TiPb.

Posted: 08 Apr 2011 07:25 PM PDT iPad 2 jailbreak may be coming sooner than a lot of folks thought thanks to p0sixninja. In a recent tweet, he claims they are working on a jailbreak for the new iPad 2. As we all remember, with the release of the 4.3.1 jailbreak, the iPad 2 was left out of the fun, due to the difference in the bootrom. p0sixninja appears to be confirming that the jailbreak does exist –
