Game Factory has been given the license for
Code Lyoko
, a popular Anime-style show on Cartoon Network. They wasted no time in producing a game for the DS, to capitalize on the show's strong following among kids in their early teens. The player takes the role of Ulrich, Odd Yumi and Aelita, in their fight against X.A.N.A. in the virtual realm of Lyoko. The final product is an ambitious little endeavor that stays true to its source material but has a few flaws in execution.
This game is sure to make fans of the TV show happy—it includes all of the main characters in playable form, and is divided into to play styles: adventure and Lyoko mode. In this way it encompasses the show's premise, which concerns a group of middle schoolers who find a way to transport to a virtual world called Lyoko. The game takes advantage of the DS medium's storage capacity by squeezing a lot of full motion video cutscenes onto the card, most of them taken right from the show. The locations and environments are faithful to their animated counterparts with good attention to detail.
The game's division into two forms of play reflects the show's contrasting styles. In the show, the "real world" is represented with traditional animation and Lyoko is done in CG. The game follows this pattern by having the real world school presented in a point-and click, sprite-based style while Lyoko is rendered in 3D polygons and follows an action beat-em-up format. Each level has two halves, where the characters start at the school and then progress into Lyoko. The two modes complement each other but they don't function on par with other games in their respective genres.
The 2D adventure mode follows the formula established by older titles, albeit simplified. Most of the objectives involve finding a critical item and then taking it to a certain person or location. Navigating the school proved somewhat confusing, because depth within the scenes wasn't consistent from one area to the next. The overhead map, displayed on the top screen, added to the confusion by having a strange orientation; up on the D-pad could mean left on the map. This made finding objectives unnecessarily frustrating and marred an otherwise enjoyable adventure experience. Each character got their fair share of time in the adventure levels, but there wasn't a big difference between each one.
That all changes in Lyoko. Odd, Ulrich, Yumi and their virtual friend Aelita all have different skills and play styles, which add some strategy to the 3D gameplay. For example, Ulrich fights only with a blade, whereas Odd is strictly a projectile fighter, so choosing characters for the right situations is usually the difference between success and failure. Lyoko is a hazardous environment, and the entire means of interaction changes from point and click to a 3D quest. The polygonal landscapes have a surreal quality and are nicely rendered and textured to represent a virtual Tron-esque world.
Lyoko is a bit more interesting than the school because there's more to do—namely, combat. Creatures will spawn and project life-force barriers to trap the player, and attack from all angles. Code Lyoko gets very challenging during these fights, almost to the point of hardcore arcade difficulty. Without the right character or skill upgrade, the player will often end up dead, and several times in a row too. This challenge is welcome for older, more experienced gamers, but the younger crowd that watches the show might just get frustrated after dying so many times.
To be honest, some of the difficulty results from how the characters handle. Movement and attacks were stiff and clunky, and most of the time I felt that my strikes were underpowered, even when upgraded. The characters are fine when traversing Lyoko (except for a few clumsy drops into a bottomless pit), but they don't fight very well. Despite the wide range of attack styles and powers, it was far too easy for enemies to surround and pick me to pieces, while I flailed helplessly, blocking the odd shot but still taking damage.
Getting past these enemies takes guts and strategy, harkening back to the 64-bit era of health-grinding actioners. Players are rewarded with upgrade powerups, with which they can buy increased health and firepower abilities. This added depth to an already healthy character balance, but sometimes the upgrades were vital to beating the enemies. Once the last virtual bug falls, however, the Lyoko levels get a bit anticlimactic. The player must switch to Aelita to access X.A.N.A. virus towers, and then take part in a short puzzle sequence to destabilize the tower and return normalcy to that area of Lyoko. This is the way most Lyoko levels end, with no minibosses or extra challenges. There are a couple of races, but they happen late in the game and they aren't a huge part of the gameplay.
Both halves of the game are presented well, which helps make up for anything they lack in design. The Lyoko levels take advantage of the DS's 3D abilities and the adventure levels are well drawn and include crisply animated sprites. Most of the NPC students at the school are placeholders though, which simplified the levels and watered down the interaction. There isn't much voice work aside from the occasional grunt or yell, as most of the dialogue is done in text, but the rest of the sound is appropriate and varied. Some more music variety from the show would've been nice.
Code Lyoko does a lot of different things and offers a decently long quest, and fans of the show will appreciate how faithfully the source material was recreated. That said, some fine tuning is definitely needed to make the two play styles feel more balanced, especially in regards to difficulty. The developers did a good job with what they had, and with this experience under their belts I expect a sequel is on the way. Code Lyoko is still a very valuable franchise, and the next time around maybe Game Factory will implement the variety of gameplay a little more smoothly.
More On:
Code Lyoko
Game Factory
Code Lyoko for the DS has a healthy selection of things to do, but none of them have enough polish. Difficulty is imbalanced between the action and adventure portions of the game and could frustrate casual players. Despite its flaws, this game does a good job of translating the show it was based on into an enjoyable interactive experience.

Chelsea's game against Sparta Prague in the Europa League this week affords Petr Cech the opportunity to return to one of his former clubs and a city he knows well.
He was born in Plzen but played in the Czech capital city during the 2001/02 campaign, and the 31-year-old believes our travelling fans have plenty to look forward to ahead of the match.
'If you go to Old Town Square, from there you are within walking distance of bars, restaurants, Prague Castle, Charles Bridge and the national theatre,' he tells the official Chelsea website.
'That is a reference point of Prague from where you can get to most places in three to five minutes by car or 10 minutes on foot.
'The two main tourist attractions are the Charles Bridge, and from there you can walk to Prague Castle. There is also a fantastic view from that particular area and it's nice to have lunch by the river there, or take a boat trip, although at this time of year it's probably a bit too cold.
'Around the Old Town Square there are small streets where you can buy souvenirs, plus there are also some pubs and coffee shops, so that's a nice area to go to if you just want to sit down and relax for a while.
'From there you are very close to the stadium as well, it's just on the other side of the river.'
While the Blues have had to contend with a schedule which has seen us play 13 matches since Christmas, by contrast our opponents have recently enjoyed a warm-weather training camp.
Cech believes Sparta Prague have more than enough quality to cause us problems, and feels we will need to keep a close eye on two of their most recent additions.
'The game against us will be their first competitive match since December,' says the Czech player of the year.
'They recently signed David Lafata, who has been the top scorer in the Czech Republic for the past two seasons, as well as Roman Bednar, who used to play for West Bromwich Albion.
'They will have options, and they are a team with a good blend of young, hungry players and experienced ones.
'For them, it will be the biggest game of their careers, so that's a danger because they will want to show they can do well against us.'
The last few tickets are still available for next week's second leg at Stamford Bridge.

Game Description
In Flatout, making it to the finish line is not the only way to win. As long as no one else gets there either, things will work out just fine. Get behind the wheel of rust-bucket racers practically begging to be destroyed in all-out, over-the-top racing. Finish first or just finish the competition by reducing their ride to a pile of scrap metal. Go beyond classic Flatout racing with new modes that offer even more destruction. High speeds and slow motion come together in Stuntman Mode. Survive your opponents and much worse in deathtrap-filled Arena Mode. And do as much damage as quickly as you can as in Trash Mode.

Get your 'keep out of jail free' card. That's what Tour Edge Golf's new JMAX Gold driver is all about – eliminating trouble and keeping you safe. The 6A4V Titanium JMAX Gold driver makes hitting great tee shots easy. The club features a 15º loft, an offset hosel for less slice, a deep center of gravity, a high moment of inertia (MOI – the club's ability to resist twisting), and a shorter 44.5" shaft.
The Gold's deep center of gravity provides greater forgiveness on off-center hits. The offset hosel gives golfers an extra fraction of a second to square and close the club face and eliminate the dreaded slice. The radiused sole design moves more weight to the rear of the club head for a higher MOI and enhanced forgiveness.
For greater control, the Gold's graphite shaft is shorter than some drivers making it extremely accurate and easy to hit. Plus, the ultra light shaft's low flex point delivers a high-and quick launch for reduced dispersion and more- accurate shots. With the JMAX Gold driver you can eliminate more of the trouble and stay on the straight and narrow.
- Offset hosel allows the clubface to square at impact for straighter drives
- Higher loft and deeper center of gravity combine to deliver maximum distance
- 44.5" shaft length provides accurate control off the tee
Higher Loft Provides slower swinging players with the ideal launch angle.
Offset Hosel Helps square the club face at impact for straighter drives.

Description of CVI ExpertiseCVI Program Unit(s):
Lipid / Atherosclerosis / CAD / ACS / Prevention
Thrombosis / Hemostasis
CVI Research Description:
The Sachais Lab is primarily interested in the biology and structure of platelet factor 4 (PF4). PF4 is a cationic protein found in the a-granules of platelets and is released upon platelet activation. It binds avidly to glycosaminoglycans on the surface of endothelial cells and is known to inhibit anti-thrombin III, resulting in increased clotting.
We are interested in the role of PF4 in several diseases, specifically atherosclerosis and heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). We have found that PF4 is localized in atherosclerotic lesions and that the presence of PF4 correlated with pathological and clinical disease progression. Further, we have found that in vitro PF4 inhibits endocytosis of the LDL receptor, resulting in decreased LDL degradation and retention of LDL on the cell surface. Current studies are underway to further understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for this phenomenon and to examine the effects of PF4 on other lipoproteins and lipoprotein receptors. In vivo experiments are currently underway to further our understanding of these phenomena.
Another project in the lab is examining the molecular mechanisms of HIT. This rare but serious complication of heparin therapy is known to involve the recognition of PF4:heparin complexes by pathogenic auto-antibodies. It is also known that altering the ratio of heparin to PF4 alters the recognition of the complexes. Our working hypothesis is that the structure of the complexes formed at different heparin:PF4 ratios differs and that the structural changes are important for the expression of disease. We are investigating these structural changes and how these changes effect pathogenesis of HIT. Both in vitro and in vivo systems are being employed.

Job growth was less than expected in August as the U.S. economy added 169,000 positions, raising questions over whether the Federal Reserve will begin a pullback on its historically easy monetary policy.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics also said the unemployment rate dropped to 7.3 percent, its lowest since December 2008, but due primarily to fewer Americans in the labor force.
A more encompassing rate that counts the underemployed and those who have quit working also fell, dropping to 13.7 percent.
"Obviously very disappointing—it's hard to see very much positive coming from this report," said Mark Hamrick, Washington bureau chief for Bankrate.com.
Traders initially liked the report; the stock market retreated on geopolitical turmoil, before rebounding again. Interest rates dropped, and the U.S. dollar lost ground against most of the world's currencies.
The market movement likely underscored the notion that investors have more to worry about than the economy, as Syria roils and Washington braces for a contentious debt showdown.
"Overall the report contains both positive and negative factors, and while insufficient to change our expectations over an imminent reduction in the pace of bond purchases it should do wonders for settling some of the indigestion suffered by worrywarts in the bond market," said Andrew Wilkinson, chief economic strategist at Miller Tabak. "The word 'Goldilocks' springs to mind somewhere, but we're not quite sure where to place it."
Indeed, some surmised that the number was good enough to show economic expansion but just tepid enough to keep any Fed stimulus removal tepid.
The Fed is buying $85 billion a month in Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities and is expected to begin unwinding its $3.6 trillion balance sheet later this month.
"We have no reason to expect something different from the (Fed) announcement on the 18th," said Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist at Charles Schwab. "It probably won't be a big move. I think they'll take a baby step."
Of the more notable numbers from the BLS, previous months of solid job creation were revised substantially lower.
(Read more: CNBC.com live blogs the jobs number)
July's number got knocked down to 172,000 from 188,000, and June's tumbled all the way from 162,000 to 104,000.
Part-time jobs surged, rising 211,000 to 19.3 million, a gain of 1.1 percent from July.
Investors were watching the jobs number closely for clues on what the Federal Reserve's next step will be.
Central bank officials have said the monthly asset purchase program likely would be pared back—"tapering" in market lingo—so long as the economic data held up. The conversation changed Friday to a "taper-light" that will come because of the mediocre job growth.
"When (Fed Chairman) Ben Bernanke first raised the specter of tapering several months ago, the case was better for tapering than it is right now," Hamrick said. "With the three-month average for payrolls growth below 150,000, Bernanke is going to have to make a very forceful case that strength in the economy is acceptable to begin withdrawing stimulus."
Many of the report's internals were poor.
The labor force participation rate slumped to 63.2 percent, its worst reading in 35 years.
More than half the jobs added came through estimates the government does each month of the amount of positions gained or lost through new business openings and closures. The so-called birth-death model added 90,000 to the total.
(Read more: 12 jobs where women win on pay)
"Demand isn't there and money to pay additional workers isn't there," said Kathy Bostjancic, director of macroeconomic analysis at The Conference Board. "The lackluster labor market might lead the Federal Reserve to delay the tapering of its quantitative easing. "
Unemployment for blacks jumped to 13.0 percent from 12.6 percent, while the average duration of unemployment hit a five-month high at 37 weeks.
And job quality was at the low end of the income spectrum, as retail led the way with 44,000. Health care was next with 33,000, professional and business services gained 23,000 and bars and restaurants added 21,000.
The motion picture and sound recording industry lost 22,000 positions.
(Read more: Services sector growth jumps)
On the plus side, the average work week increased 0.1 percent to 34.5 hours and the average wage rose 5 cents to $24.05.
Recent data has shown an improving economic picture.
Weekly jobless claims have held steady below the 350,000 level, which is seen as important to indicate expansion. Institute of Supply Management employment numbers have backed up that story.
However, Friday's report shows that the labor market is far from healed.
"We've got a generational shift going on here. It's going to be persistent," said Sue Marks, founder and CEO at Pinstripe, a global employment recruiting firm. "It's a systemic problem and a systemic situation that's going to require some new thinking."

Good Food – I have dined in three times and one "to go" order. I have had three different meals and all were very good.
My "to go" order was a Supreme Pizza. It was very soggy and limp so I cannot recommend the pizza.
The wait staff was nice and attentive,
I recommend this tucked away Restaurant.
One thing to mention, from the street the Open Sign is to hard to see that it is on. We eat early and there were not any cars upon approach to the parking lot but then we saw the sign OPEN. So besure and drive up to the front & check.

Raymond "Frisky" Kaliski
Raymond "Frisky" Kaliski '36, the main character in the movie The Life of Raymond "Frisky" Kaliski, has left the set 25 days after reaching the magic age of 100 years old. Frisky passed on the morning of Thanksgiving, November 28th, 2013. The epic tale was magnificently acted, performed at the highest level, and will be remembered by many for generations to come. Raymond "Frisky" Kaliski was born on November 3, 1913 in San Francisco, the second son of Louis and Frances Kaliski. He and his brother Marty, were raised in Oakland, California where Ray excelled in track and football. Many of Ray's track records at Oakland High from the late 1920's stood until the 50's. His football ability earned him a scholarship to Santa Clara University where he became a fierce running back, defensive back and an elusive kick returner during the 1932-35 seasons. His running abilities were what got him penned by the S.F. Chronicle as "Frisky Kaliski", a name that has stuck with him for over 70 years. "Frisky" became a proud member of the SCU Football Hall of Fame on August 28, 2001, getting inducted along with Brent Jones of the San Francisco 49ers. After his college years, Frisky went on to distribute film all along the West Coast. During the war, Ray could not serve in the military due to a childhood accident which almost took his life at the age of ten. Instead, he worked as a ship fitter at the Bethlehem Shipyards at Hunters Point in San Francisco. After the war Ray worked with his dad and brother to develop a large chain of movie theatres in the Bay Area. The passing of Ray's father in 1955 marked the beginning of a new phase in the life of Ray and his brother. They ceased running movie theatres and concentrated on building apartment complexes, starting with the 34 unit Lakeside Apartments complex on Lake Merritt. They then built the 80 unit complex in Alameda called The Dunes, whose eventual sale made way for the Harbor Point Apartments and the connected tennis and swim club, as well as Strawberry Shores Apartments all on Strawberry Point in Mill Valley. Frisky, along with his bride BJ and daughter Barbara, built a successful miniature horse ranch in Petaluma, called Winner's Circle, which won dozens of trophies and ribbons including a National Title with one of their prize show horses. When Ray's brother Marty died in 1989, Ray got his sons, Raymond William '66 and Robert (Bobbo), involved in running the show. Ray spent much time traveling the world with BJ but was devastated with her death in January of 2000. After that loss, he further embraced his family, taking them on numerous cruises and trips allowing him to get to know his five grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren. Tragedy struck Ray and the family in 2009, when his youngest granddaughter, Jaime Norman '98, passed away at the early age of 33. In addition to the generosity to his family, Ray donated to hundreds of charities, and also supported his youngest son, Robert's, dream to start The Harbor Point Charitable Foundation, that has since raised over $1,000,000 for local charities and those most in need in The Bay Area. So now the theatre showing Ray's remarkable life is dark. But his legacy will continue through his loving family and the many friends he left behind. His three children, Barbara, Ray W, and Robert will continue to enhance the legacy of this remarkable man. His four grandchildren: Michael; Melanie; Kris and Patrick will enhance it even more. Ray is also survived by 11 great grandchildren, Nicholas Mitchell, Colton Dansie, Taylor Dansie, Brett Mitchell, Andrew Mitchell. Joshua Dansie, Ty Mitchell, Alli Dansie, Zachary Schwerin-Daro, Jack Sheldon and Ziyad Kaliski. His generosity and the physical things he built have helped make people's lives better, healthier and more fun. The Harbor Point Apartments, The Club at Harbor Point and the restaurant Nourish Grill continue his legacy. Rest in peace "Frisky", you played your role on this earth with dignity and grace. All of your family and friends are proud to have known you, loved you and lived with you. Your employees have been honored to work for and with you. We will all continue to make you proud until we join you on the other side. - See more at: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/marinij/obituary.aspx?n=raymond-kaliski-frisky&pid=168365230&fhid=18264#sthash.OMfV18Pb.dpuf

William Hugh McInerney '47, Oct. 5, 1924 - Nov. 12, 2013. Bill passed away on Tuesday afternoon after a valiant year long battle with cancer. He finally made it into the "Irish Sports Page." Bill was born in Los Angeles, Calif. in 1924. His father, Cornelius, emigrated from Ireland and was an iron worker with Pacific Iron Company. Cornelius was killed in an industrial accident shortly after the birth of his son. Thereafter, his mother, Ellen, raised Bill in their family home that had been built by his father, in the Boyle Heights section of LA. Bill attended St. Mary's Grammar School until the seventh grade, when his mother died. Bill's uncle, Joe McInerney, brought him to Oakland to live with his mother's four maiden aunts and three cousins, who had also lost their parents. Bill completed grammar school at St. Francis de Sales in Oakland followed by St. Joseph's High School in Alameda. He attended Santa Clara University where he served as Student Body President and graduated cum laude in 1947 with a bachelor's degree in political science. He then attended the University of California, Berkeley, Boalt Hall School of Law, where he was on the law review and graduated in 1950.
His legal career began in the Alameda County District Attorney's Office before entering private practice. He was one of the founding members of the Oakland law firm of McInerney and Dillon, where he worked up until the last few months. For over sixty years, Bill concentrated his practice in construction law and became a national leader in the field, representing some of California's and the nation's largest contractors. He was past chairman of the Legal Advisory Committee of the Associated General Contractors and served as an arbitrator for the American Arbitration Association and the Public Works Contract Arbitration Panel for the State of California. He served on the Disputes Review Board for California's first private toll road project in Orange County and the Oakland Bay Bridge Retrofit Project.

Bill was a Knight of Malta; serving as Secretary and Vice President as well as a board member. Along with his wife Mary, he volunteered on twenty-three trips to Lourdes assisting the Malades. Perhaps Bill and Mary's proudest service was leading the effort to open, staff and operate a free medical clinic for the poor at Oakland's Cathedral of Christ the Light. Since September, 2008, the clinic's volunteer doctors and nurses have serviced over 3000 people a year who would otherwise be without health care.

Howard Anawalt
Long-time law faculty member and Professor Emeritus Howard Anawalt died August 6, 2013, peacefully at home in his sleep. Professor Anawalt joined Santa Clara University School of Law in 1967 and was one of the first faculty members to specialize in the legal questions arising out of the high tech industry. He remained an active scholar and member of the Law School community even after he retired in 2003. Howard held a passion for teaching and a commitment to his profession which resonated with generations of students in his decades of service to the law school and the University community. He will be remembered as a kind and generous person who never hesitated to offer assistance to his students and colleagues.
"The High Tech Law Institute remains incredibly grateful for Prof. Anawalt's many foundational contributions to our program," said Prof. Eric Goldman, Director of the High Tech Law Institute. "Our high tech law program would not be as rich and successful as it's been without his foresighted efforts. On a personal note, Prof. Anawalt shared his 1994 Computer Law syllabus with me when I first developed my own Internet Law course in 1995, and his thoughts influenced my concepts about the course a lot."
Howard Anawalt is considered by many to be the father of the nationally recognized intellectual property program at Santa Clara Law. He joined the School of Law in 1967, and specialized in constitutional law, torts, and intellectual property law. "Howard Anawalt was a great teacher and scholar at Santa Clara University's law school and he was instrumental in forming and advancing the Law School's highly acclaimed intellectual property law program," says Professor Donald Polden, who served as dean from 2003-2013. "He exemplified the great teacher-scholars in legal education and he will be missed by his many friends from Santa Clara University."
In a letter to the University community, President Michael Engh, S.J. wrote, "With his expertise in intellectual property law, he was one of the first faculty members to address in his teaching the legal questions arising out of the high tech industry… Howard held a passion for teaching and a commitment to his profession which resonated with generations of students in his decades of service to the law school and the University community."
Anawalt earned his A.B. from Stanford University and his J.D. from Boalt Hall School of Law, U.C. Berkeley. He was admitted to practice in the states of California and Washington and in the Supreme Court. He served as a legislative intern and legal adviser, then deputy attorney general to the California Assembly Judiciary Committee. His law practice experience included criminal jury trials, Vietnam War draft and court-martial cases, labor injunction litigation, sex and race discrimination lawsuits, and involvement in high-technology litigation and transaction practice.
At Santa Clara Law he was a very involved member of the faculty and served in many leadership and advisory roles until his retirement in 2003. He was the inaugural director of Santa Clara Law's International Institute, now called the Center for Global Law and Policy, and he served as the first director of the Santa Clara University School of Law High Tech Advisory Board, first convened in 1990. He directed Santa Clara's client counseling and national trial competitions, advised the Santa Clara Law Review, administered the Tokyo summer program, and served as adviser to the Santa Clara Law Computer and High Technology Law Journal.
Among his many publications, two stand out as the most significant: Idea Rights: A Guide to Intellectual Property (Carolina Press,) and IP Strategies: Complete Intellectual Property Planning, Access and Protection (West Publication).
Howard's fellow faculty members remembered him with fondness and respect. "Former students often comment on Howard's pleasant and compassionate classroom demeanor, but also his rigorous attention to details of cases and the importance of policy in the development of laws," said Professor Polden. "He remained a dedicated and accomplished scholar after his retirement, including a recent publication of a book on legal protection of ideas."
"Howard's academic interests covered a broad span, from constitutional law to high technology," said Professor Bradley Joondeph. "In many ways, he foresaw the direction that law would be headed, many years before most lawyers had any inkling."
"Howard will be remembered as a kind and generous person, who never hesitated to offer assistance to his students and colleagues," said Professor Ken Manaster, who joined Santa Clara Law in 1972. "He had an exceptionally inquisitive mind. He seemed often to be delving into a new topic in law or into a new angle within a field he already had mastered, such as tort law, intellectual property, or constitutional law. His friendliness toward colleagues, and his active give-and-take in discussions of the law and of the law school's responsibilities to the profession, even after he retired, will be missed."
Anawalt leaves his wife, Sue, his son Brad and daughter-in-law Kirsten, his son Paul and daughter-in-law Valeria, his grandchildren Kathryn, Juliet, Gwyneth, Kevin, and Dillon, and his many students and colleagues.

I'm trying to restore my iPhone 4s firmware via iTunes; and two things are not working: when I try to restore to a d/led firmware (ie. 5.0.1 A9405/A9406) I keep getting "error 1394". However, when I try to let iTunes install the stock 5.1 firmware, I get "error 1601". I have the latest iTunes (which I reinstalled). To further remedy this, I have so far tried: including the references to two Cydia sites in my HOSTS file. NOT including those references (#ing them out). Plugging the cable directly into the main USB ports. Removing ALL software and hardware (router) firewalls AND anti virus. Hackware such as iReb, TinyUmbrella, and finally, praying to God. Nothing's worked so far (other than I'm thinking of converting to atheism).
I realize you can't install 5.0.1 firmware if you have IOS 5.1. But is there even a way to install downloaded ISPW firmware without going through iTunes? What could 1601 mean, and what are people doing to resolve it that I haven't tried?
