The Brooklyn Tap House is now using a new point of sale system that incorporates both iPads and iPod touches. The Brooklyn Tap House has one of the most extensive ale choices of any establishment that I have seen and now they can all be accessed and ordered using an iPad or iPod touch. The gastropub has installed a point-of-sale system from Albuquerque-based POSLavu that uses the Apple devices in place of a much more expensive traditional restaurant POS system. The main attraction for the POSLavu system, according to restauranteur and co-owner Hugo Salazar, was the price. Many restaurants use systems from Micros or Aloha that can sport price tags of US$20,000 or more; the bottom line for the devices and software at the Brooklyn Tap House was about $7,000. With the new system in place, the order flow has become much smoother too. All orders are now taken wirelessly using the iPod touch and then printed automatically in the kitchen. Inventory can be easily monitored in real time and the owners can keep an eye on sales anywhere in the world. The Apple hardware is also a conversation starter at the bar and they also come in handy for settling arguments too.

A new, portable fuel cell charger will be available to buy this year and it claims to be able to recharge your iPhone between 10 and 14 times. The small charging device does not need to be recharged by plugging it in; it works with replaceable fuel cell cartridges which can even be carried on planes. Fuel cell maker Lilliputian Systems today announced that Brookstone will be the first retailer to carry its portable USB power source, which will be sold under Brookstone’s brand. The fuel cell device is about the size of a thick smartphone, and the lighter fluid-filled cartridges are about the same size as a cigarette lighter. It’s a big step forward both for Lilliputian Systems, a 10-year-old spin-off from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and for portable fuel cell technology in general. Several fuel cell companies have developed portable power systems, but a number have failed. The new fuel cell will charge any device that has a USB cable.

The charging unit and replacement cartridges will be available to buy online from Brookstone and the cartridges can be fully recycled once depleted. There is no pricing information available at this time however the replacement cartridges are thought to cost no more than a few dollars. The system is being tested with users this year and an announcement on retail availability should follow that.

We’ve used all sorts of batteries for years, from household brands like Duracell and Energizer to the lithum-ion and lithium-polymer types found in many gadgets. How does the idea of a fuel cell grab you?

Anyone in the U.S. who bought a first or second-gen iPod touch between September 12, 2007 and and March 31, 2009 are eligible to get in on an antitrust lawsuit against Apple. The two complaints state that Apple broke federal and state laws by charging for iOS updates and prevented iPods from playing anything that wasn’t bought through iTunes. The litigating class membership includes just about every iPod model, including classic, shuffle, and nano.

Although I was peeved when Apple had the gall to charge for an iOS update on my first-gen iPod touch, just so that users could get email and other apps that came for free with the iPhone, it was easy enough to work around. Apple’s story about GAAP vs. non-GAAP accounting methods and reasons for insisting on the charge were overly complex and ultimately user hostile. Which is probably why Apple stopped charging for iOS software updates entirely.

I’m still not sure why the lawsuit is claiming that iTunes wouldn’t allow outside music sources; from the sounds of it, that situation was isolated to a few types of incompatible DRM, but that’s it. Basically, if you bought something from Real (remember them?) or something protected by Windows DRM, it wouldn’t play on your iPod. If you had iTunes music with FairPlay DRM or DRM-free MP3s from any source, you were good to go.

Right now there’s not much to do besides wait to see how the case pans out and collect what will likely be a five dollar refund for what you paid for the firmware update. You can get updates by signing up at the class-action suit site, or opt out of the case if you’re crazy and intend on going after Apple separately for the same issue.

Apparently this case has been hounding Apple for awhile; do you guys see any legitimacy to it?

Our sister site TouchArcade.com has launched an official iOS app this morning.

TouchArcade is a site focused on game news and reviews for Apple’s iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad platforms. The new iOS app features website content, easy game discovery, user forums, as well as app tracking abilities. Games can be added to your “Watch List” so you can be notified of sales, official reviews, and updates.

Meanwhile, we have already started working with the same app developers (Flexibits) and designer (Bartelme) to begin work on an official MacRumors app. It’s too early to predict a timeframe, but we hope to launch this year.

The TouchArcade app is available now and is free to download. [iTunes Link]

Apple has released information on the security updates that were covered in the recent release of iOS 5.1.1. When it was originally released yesterday, all that we knew was that there were various bug fixes. This update actually covers some important security fixes too for Mobile Safari and WebKit based browsers in general. Available for: iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch (3rd generation) and later, iPad, iPad 2. Impact: A maliciously crafted website may be able to spoof the address in the location bar. Available for: iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch (3rd generation) and later, iPad, iPad 2. Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to a cross-site scripting attack. Description: Multiple cross-site scripting issues existed in WebKit. Available for: iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch (3rd generation) and later, iPad, iPad 2 Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. Description: A memory corruption issue existed in WebKit. If you do a lot of web surfing on your iOS device it is definitely worthwhile upgrading to iOS 5.1.1 just for these security updates. Of course if you are running a jailbroken device you will want to still clear for now.

Given that, with iOS 5, Apple introduced over-the-air (OTA) updates to the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, it’s interesting that they’re still waiting and bundling security patches into larger software updates. OTA updates are done via bit-differential (delta file), and happen on-device and without the need to backup, re-install, and restore, so they’re small and incredibly efficient. Apple could choose to push out security updates far more frequently. It’s possible they think more frequent updates could annoy users, or their numbers tell them too many users are still updating over USB with iTunes for it to make sense right now. Hopefully, however, they’re moving in that direction.

Don’t Update to 5.1.1 if you Jailbreak your iDevice . A few hours ago Apple pushed out latest version of iOS 5.1.1 to iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users. The official changelog doesn’t show anything else except for “improvements and bug fixes” , As usual jailbreakers or those wanting to jailbreak in the future should wait before updating to the newly released firmware.

We’ll let know what changes have been made once the Dev-Teams have had a chance to examine the firmware. Hopefully, the exploitst used by pod2g are still applicable.

Update:
MuscleNerd is specifically warning iPhone 4S and iPad 2/3 owners.

“iOS 5.1.1 is out…jailbreakers beware! Owners of iPhone4S or iPad2/3 should stay away from it!”

The iBGStar blood glucose monitor by Sanofi for iPhone and iPod touch has now gained FDA (Food and Drug Administration) clearance and is available for sale in the United States.

The iBGStar costs $99.95 from the Apple Store and is compatible with the 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation iPod Touch as well as the iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4 and 4S.

Pod2G just tweeted that he successfully jailbroke his iPhone 4 on 5.1. Not only did the jailbreak work, but it was also untethered meaning that there are no problems with restarting the device after the hack is applied. Last time Pod2G tweeted about getting a jailbreak to work on his phone, it was not much
