Windows iPhone 3G jailbreak tool released
Sure, it was already possible (if complicated) to jailbreak a first-gen iPhone running the 2.0 software under Windows, but this is the one-click tool all you crazy cats with those extra G’s need if you don’t have a Mac — too bad no one’s come up with a better name than “pwn” yet. Please, people. […]
iPhone 3G SIM unlock demoed on video
We’ve already seen the iPhone 3G got unlocked to function on any carrier (and you can already buy unlocked versions in several countries), but we haven’t seen a locked handset get unlocked via software only, and the folks at gsmphone-unlocking have the first video we’ve seen of Steve’s newest baby doing the SIM swap dance […]
DataCase App Brings File Browser & Wireless Data Transfer to iPhone & iPod touch
Being able to use the iPhone or iPod touch for basic data storage and file browsing has been a missing feature for over a year now.

iPhone 3G Unlocked with SIM Card Adapter
Just four days after its launch, the iPhone 3G has been unlocked for the first time exactly like the original iPhone: using a special card that piggybacks to your SIM card, fooling the phone into thinking it’s using an official carrier. While this is not the software unlock being developed by the usual suspects, the […]

iPhone 2.0 Tips: Firmware 2.0 Has A New URL Trick
Just a quick note for you iPhone 2.0 users regarding entering domain names. In the original firmware there was a handy “.com” button when entering URLs, but you had to manually type “.org” and “.net” and “.co.uk” and other domain suffixes. Now, though, you simply hold down the “.com” button and presto, you’re offered the […]
iPhone 2.0 Tips: Safari Shows Embedded YouTube Clips
Much like the way Safari has handled Quicktime videos on former versions of the firmware, the new 2.0 release now allows you to see embedded YouTube content with your iPhone or iPod Touch on Safari. Click and it hands off video duties to the YouTube player. Really, that’s better than watching it embedded, and makes […]

The new iPhone OS 2.0 software has been unlocked and jailbroken. It was released just hours ago and it has already been cracked by the iPhone Dev Team. The first one took a couple of months, but this one was actually unlocked before Apple released it to the public. And you have had the proof […]
