Today I am off to explore Universal Studios Orlando and the Wizzarding World of Harry Potter! Alone... I will try to post some thoughts / tips / secrets / etc throughout the day

The first thing I will say is to get here early buy don't expect anything to do / eat etc :( My cabbie said to be here at 7 and I feel that this is way excessive... I am not staying at the universal hotels so I can't enter until 9AM... Even Starbucks is closed until 8 AM ?!?! Ok... Got my Starbucks... Feeling good now!

 

So about this getting in early business... It's prob a good idea if your coming anytime in 2010! Since I am alone I thought I would just try to slip in early with a group staying at a universal hotel...

They use biometrics at the gate... I was flat out denied... Apparently they fingerprint all guests staying at the hotel when you check in and re-check everyone at the park gates! When I was a kid they ripped paper tickets... WTF

2nd time worked... In 30 mins early!!!

 

I made a big mistake already :( so the fingerprints at the front gate have nothing to do with admission... I was rejected for being in the wrong line! The real Wizzarding World of Harry Potter line is inside the park... So I sat there for 35 mins while a huge line grew inside the park :( Now I wait... Three worlds away

 

70 mins wait at 9AM for the forbidden journey!

 

 

Single flyer line is 10 mins!!! Split up people it's worth it... Just ask someone where to go! Truly Amazing! Like iMax meets roller coaster...

 

In line for the Hungarian Horntail now... Ha ha... This is redick ;) Pretty amazing coaster! Olivanders wand shop wait is 45 min to 1 hour and there is only a 1-30 chance you get to do anything cause it's a group thing!

Butterbeer then Olivanders for 2hrs... Urgh

 

 

Yay for two hour lines!

 

Olivanders is creepy... Def not my favorite!

The Dragon coasters are epic... Prob my favortie thing at the park!

Today the jailbreak for iPhone 4 (iOS 4.0.1) 4 became wildly avaliable. Mosly because of the site jailbreakme.com... I used it and it worked for me :)

Jailbreakme.com claims, "A jailbreak is simply the ability to run apps and use themes and tweaks not approved by Apple. Jailbreaking doesn't slow down your device or use any extra battery. A jailbreak lets your device be how you want it.

Don't update past 4.0.1, the last firmware JailbreakMe supports. Secondly, and arguably most importantly, allow Cydia to "make your life easier". This will allow you to always restore back to the latest firmware available when you select that option.

Is JailbreakMe reversible? Of course! If you ever decide that you want to remove your jailbreak, just connect your device to your computer, sync, and then press Restore in iTunes.

Is this legal in the US? A new DMCA exemption was approved by the Library of Congress, specifically allowing jailbreaking. Other Stuff"

Are there security concerns regarding the jailbreak of iPhone iOS 4? The vulnerability the jailbreak uses is not, as initially reported, in the Safari browser but in a component for displaying PDF files. The site uses a number of tricks to identify what device is requesting to be jailbroken and then loads an appropriate PDF file into it.
