    Very funny to see a jail breakers frustration when half way through the jail break the 3G drops out or the dudes phone is bricked during the process... or even better the web site is hijacked in the near future and all these phones are bricked... three cheers for the dev team!

    They should hold a Press Release. That was a brilliant move by Steve. Those Bloggers need to understand that the iPhone is the best phone, but that it cannot squirt pink unicorns out of its butt.



    All phones have certain insecurities.

    That doesn't make much sense, unfortunately.



    If it were true, that would mean that apple released iOS with a known security vulnerability. Sorry, but that ain't their style.

    Nope. The hackers invented it to say that they were like criminals breaking out of jail to steal more stuff.



    Pathetic that they identify so much with thieves, but it probably explains why they steal so much software.

    That's just hilarious.



    You are talking to a jailbreaker who has admitted to downloading pirated software.

    And your comment, besides being incorrect, is suppose to have what relevancy to his reply to me?

    Your blind faith in Apple has made you unbelievably gullible. Apple obviously knew about the issue and they did not get around to fixing it yet. This is also far far far from the first time Apple has not fixed a bug immediately. Apple has a very high rate of security issues in their software. They don't get the press IE attracts, but that does not mean they do not have a simmilar or worse track record in recent years.

    SendMe is not worth responding to. This is an alt that tries to post over the top parodies of what some Apple fans tend to post in order to bait posters into responding negatively about Apple. Unfortunately, as long as people keep responding he will keep this alt active. Also unfortunate that his parody is so close to what some real Apple fans post that people actually think his posts are sincere. I think his original alt was tekstud.
