		<description><![CDATA[If you noticed that Rogers 3G stopped working on your iPad/iPhone while using the developer beta for iOS 4.2 then read on how to fix it. <a href="http://furtivecode.com/2010/09/18/how-to-get-rogers-3g-working-on-apple-ios-4-2-beta-1-for-ipad-or-iphone/"><div class="read-more">Read more &#8250;</div><!-- end of .read-more --></a>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>iPhone and iPads using iOS 4.2 beta 1 don&#8217;t work using Rogers 3G, the error message mentions &#8220;cellular data plan not found&#8221;, this is because Rogers hasn&#8217;t updated the carrier bundle with Apple to support iOS 4.2 yet.  It&#8217;s relatively easy to patch the bundle yourself and have iTunes apply it to your device:</p>
<p>Note: All instructions are for Mac OSX since I can&#8217;t imagine you having a developer license and doing all of this from a Windows PC.</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone/CarrierBundles/061-8657.20100716.AqwPu/Rogers_ca.ipcc ">Grab the latest Rogers_ca.ipcc</a> from Apple&#8217;s server.  If you are unsure what the latest file should be, simply run the following in Terminal:
<pre>curl -s -L http://phobos.apple.com/version | grep -i carrier | grep Rogers</pre>
</li>
<li>Rename <code>Rogers_ca.ipcc</code> to <code>Rogers_ca.zip</code> and unzip it, it will extract a folder called <code>Payload</code>.</li>
<li>Edit <code>Payload/Rogers_ca/version.plist</code> and replace the string associated with key CFBundleVersion from  <code>&lt;string&gt;7.1&lt;/string&gt;</code> to <code>&lt;string&gt;8.1+&lt;/string&gt;</code></li>
<li>Rezip the file as <code>Rogers_ca.ipcc</code> (just right click on the Payload folder in Finder and select Archive, then rename it to Rogers_ca.ipcc)</li>
<li>Quit iTunes</li>
<li>Run the following in Terminal to enable Carrier Test mode, otherwise iTunes won&#8217;t apply the patch:
<pre>defaults write com.apple.iTunes carrier-testing -bool TRUE</pre>
</li>
<li>Connect your iPad or iPhone and launch iTunes if it doesn&#8217;t automatically</li>
<li>Select your device from the list of devices on the left, then hold down the Option key and select &#8220;Check for Update.&#8221;</li>
<li>Select your .ipcc file (if it doesn&#8217;t let you select it then go to Finder and do Get Info on file and make sure it doesn&#8217;t show Rogers_ca.ipcc.zip as a file name, remove the .zip if it does)</li>
<li>After synching you might have to reboot your iPad.</li>
</ol>
<p>Once again <a href="http://www.rogers.ca">Rogers</a> makes it harder for Canadians, especially Canadian developers, to keep up with the rest of the world.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now that the <a href="http://www.zeldman.com/superfriends/">HTML5 Super Friends</a> have <a href="http://www.zeldman.com/superfriends/guide/">chimed in on what concerns them most about HTML5</a>, I decided to get to know each of the Super Friends by adding them to my RSS reader.  Here&#8217;s a short description of each one:</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Support for fonts on the web has been a sore spot for a long time, but that's all about to change.  Both Firefox 3.1 and the latest Webkit (Safari, Opera, Google Chrome) properly support CCS 3's @font-face property. <a href="http://furtivecode.com/2008/12/05/the-new-face-of-fonts-on-the-web/"><div class="read-more">Read more &#8250;</div><!-- end of .read-more --></a>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Support for fonts on the web has been a sore spot for a long time, but that&#8217;s all about to change with both <a title="Firefox 3.1 beta supports font-face, geolocation, etc." href="http://ajaxian.com/archives/firefox-31-beta-geolocation-font-face-video-and-audio-xhr-and-tracemonkey">Firefox 3.1</a> and the latest <a title="Webkit supports font-face property for custom fonts on the web." href="http://www.css3.info/webkit-has-web-fonts-support/">Webkit</a> (Safari, Opera, Google Chrome) properly support <a title="W3C CSS3 font-face descriptor." href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-webfonts/#font-descriptions">CCS 3&#8242;s @font-face property</a>.  Now browsers will be able to automatically download fonts from an online location.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a simple example:</p>
<pre>      @font-face {
        font-family: "Robson Celtic";
        src: url("http://site/fonts/rob-celt")
      }
      H1 { font-family: "Robson Celtic", serif }</pre>
<p>This is very exciting news.  No longer will typographically savvy developers need to rely on <a title="sIFR using jQuery" href="http://jquery.thewikies.com/sifr/">clever sIFR hacks</a>.  Oh, and not to make Internet Explorer an afterthought, but IE has supported @font-face since version 4, except with a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_OpenType">proprietary .EOT filetype</a>, a compressed form of OpenType, while Firefox and Webkit are supporting the more common and non-proprietary TrueType and OpenType formats.</p>
