Hackers Post Ways To Reverse iPhone Upgrade

[HardOCP News]

Apple is having a hell of a time staying ahead of the hackers lately. As soon as a new update hits “locking out” hackers, they are right back in.

Members of the iPhone hacking community have discovered how to roll back a recent Apple firmware upgrade that rendered their mobile phones unusable. The instructions were available Monday on the iPhone Dev Wiki, a Web site devoted to iPhone software hacks and tools.

doesn't this kind of give credence to the argument that macs aren't "hacker proof"....

just goes to show, when something is "loved" by more than a niche crowd that people will actually take time to learn it's inner workings....welcome to the world of Microsoft apple.

LOL. Glad to hear it. I felt bad for people who got a bricked iPhone because Apple didn't want them running 3rd party apps.
