i-Phone Unlocked 

That’s right folks the I-Phone has been unlocked and by none other then a 17 year old boy. George Hotz is a young man who wanted his I-Phone to run on his families T-Mobile network, so what did he do? He went to work and 500 hours later, George was able to make a call on the T-Mobile network. Pretty impressive, don’t you think?

QUOTE
"Hackers are going to have to stay one step ahead," said Raven Zachary, an analyst with the 451 Group research firm and the co-founder of the iPhone Developers Camp, which brought software developers together last month to brainstorm programs for the iPhone. "Each time Apple hardens the operating system to minimize unlocking, it's going to get more difficult for the hacker community to find a workaround to unlock the iPhone."


check out the interview with the young man below.

RE: i-Phone Unlocked 

Actually the ones to unlock the iphone were by the team at http://www.iphonesimfree.com/ and Engadget http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/24/iphone-...august-24-2007/

You can read the full story here...though that 17 year old may try to lay claim to the fortune this company made software to crack it and actually did it.
