iPhone 2.0 firmware jailbrokenThe folks at iPhone Dev Team are at it again, and this time they’ve jailbroken iPhone firmware before it was even released.

Apparently they got a hold of the new firmware that ships with the SDK, decrypted the disk image, and completely unlocked it. The screenshot shows some apps running on the new firmware.

Unfortunately, the unlock won’t work with AT&T iPhones yet. However, as always, we’re sure that will change in only a few days.

This should send a clear message to Apple - stop trying to lock down your devices. They’ve unlocked them before, and they will keep doing it as long as Apple keeps trying. Apple, do us all a favor. Please?
