It's an exciting day for Android fans as Verizon launched two new phones. I'm happy to report that the 1337pwn.com XBOX Live Friends application runs like a champ on both of them. Behind the scenes, we've been working on a completely new Android app. We look forward to showing it off! Thank you and don't pwn alone(tm) More

1337pwn.com is looking for some members of our community with access to the Google Wave Sandbox. We're putting together something "cool" for Google Wave and need a few Alpha/Beta Testers. Send a wave to detansinn@wavesandbox.com if you are interested. (No email, just start a wave with me). This is a completely new kind of application for the XBOX Live community and we're excited at how it is coming together. Thank you and don't pwn alone(tm) More

While we appreciate the frustration that their web sites and applications no longer function, these folks were stealing bandwidth and slowing the system down for our legitimate users. It costs us a considerable amount of money to deliver these FREE 1337pwn.com XBOX Live Friends applications to the community.
