Guess what: the Librarian of Congress and the Registrar of Copyrights are going to allow you to jailbreak your iPhones and other locked devices (read: anything on AT&T’s network): go EFF! In addition, it looks like you will be able to move content that you have legally licensed from one device to something new and different–at least in a few circumstances.

AT&T: I call BS on your dropped call statistics
Slashgear cites an AT&T claim that only 1.44% of calls on it’s network are dropped. I know that I am an atypical customer, insisting on my unlimited data plan and not caring for texts (I really wish that people would stop texting in the US. “Recipient also pays” is a horrible system!), but I have no idea how they come up with these numbers. Today I had three dropped calls in three different parts of the city. And this doesn’t even begin to look at the 3g dropping in the neighborhood. Thanks to the AT&T X marks the spot app, I have reported six of these in the past two days. Not that I have only had six complete data drops, mind you, but the app doesn’t seem to allow you to manually enter addresses or to cache reports when it can’t lock onto your location.
