The iPhone Has Been Unlocked
My wallet just got that sinking feeling…
According to Ryan Block of Engadget:
The iPhoneSIMfree.com team called us up to prove their claim
that they cracked Apple’s iPhone SIM lock system, and prove it they
did. (No, we don’t have a copy of the unlock software, so don’t even
ask us, ok?) The six-man team has been working non-stop since launch
day, and they’re officially the first to break Apple’s SIM locks on the
iPhone with software. It’s done. Seriously. They wouldn’t tell us when
and how they would release it to the public, but you can certainly bet
that they’ll try to make a buck on their solution (and rightly so). We
can hardly believe the iPhone’s finally been cracked. No, scratch that
– we just can’t believe it took this long.
They even have video up. Now leave me alone as I begin to ponder if its a good idea to run a hacked phone all the time…
