Random No Comments »Just saw an Interesting news on BBC.
A New Jersey teenager has unlocked the iPhone, opening the way to Apple’s iconic mobile telephone being used by non-US networks.
The Associated Press news agency confirmed George Hotz, 17, had unlocked the iPhone and used it on T-Mobile, a rival to its sole US operator, AT&T.The hacker says the unlocking takes about two hours and involves some soldering and skill with software. AT&T and Apple have not yet commented on the news.
This is interesting. Really. But is this legal? I mean if the manufacture of the phone have given the phone only for AT&T mobile, how can he use it on T-Mobile? Obviously, its should not be legal to use the phone which other phones than the specified by Apple. Specially in the country like USA, which have very strong copyright and other laws.
And if this is legal, why don,t someone produce it on large number and export it to outside of USA? I mean they can hire this guy. iPhone is the most wanted thing now and I am sure it would be the most profitable business.
I just discovered his blog. He’ve listed all procedures how he unlocked the phone. The phone he unlocked is sold for Nissan 350Z and 3 8GB iPhones. Damn, thats too much.
Check his blog. http://iphonejtag.blogspot.com/
