iPhone Hacking
The 1.1.1 update for the iPhone turns all hacked iPhones into an iBrick or iPaperWeight. Sucky, eh? Well, too bad. Sure, it’s cool and hip to unlock your iPhone, not that anyone but you truly cares that you did.
Do I think that Apple should have gone with AT&T (Your world. Delivered–To The NSA)? Probably not the best choice to use an EDGE cellular network, but that’s their mistake. The iPhone has generated huge amounts of income for Apple and AT&T. Would it have generated more income if they had used a more open (or multiple) cell network? Definitely.
If your iPhone is bricked you can find instructions on how to roll back to 1.0.2 on the Internet. I’m not going to post them or a link here since I don’t want to receive some sort of Gestapo take-down order.
