Mess of circuitry unlocks iPhone, software solution next?

Filed under: Cellphones

Welp, ’tis done friends, but we’re going to have to wait a week for all the gory details to be released. Geohot and his crew of trusty fiddlers have apparently found a solution for sorting the iPhone for worldwide consumption by hardware unlocking the beast. We’ve seen a video, and know he’s been well involved with iPhone shenanigans since day one, but until we see it in our hand color us excited but not sold — though we’re stoked that they report a software based version may be on the horizon. But in the unhappy event that it ends up being hardware unlock only, you can use this week to brush up on your soldering skills. We’re gonna be all over this in the coming days so know that the minute we know more, you will too. Peep the vid after the break.
