| I think Apple has
made the phone where no one will be able to hack it to the point that it will wok will functions on any network. Sure, you may be able to get some stuff to work on another network, but never where it will work 100% the way its supposed to. Apple is just too good to expose such holes.

| Where is the SIM unlocker already ?!
Ebay is waiting!  There is a LOT of truth in this, boys and girls... This thing is QUAD band GSM so it can go ANYWHERE in the world. If the crack gets out before it launches anywhere else, there will be a lot of WIN for many ebayers.

If Microsoft pulled this crap, people would be all over Microsoft's case saying that this was typical of them, blah blah. Just goes to show that Apple is more like Microsoft than many of us give credit for. In the end, it's about $$$.

Re: The hacking has only started...
PCWorld published a story that would suggest hacking the device isn't going to take much longer - Hacker: Unlocked iPhones Coming in One Week or Less.

said by RR Conductor :Power to the people! Sure. DVD Jon has figured out how to get an iPhone to work without phone service. What a genius. Give him a medal.
I am sure everyone will want to go right out and buy a $600 iPhone so that they can have a cellphone without cellphone capability.

Re: The hacking has only started...
"DVD Jon" exploring how to activate a brand new unactivated iPhone without signing up for AT&T service (the mobile phone service won't work, obviously).
well, "DVD Jon", we want to wish you good luck with activating your at&t phone w/o using at&t. we personally do not know what your issue is but we had no problem, basicly, man made it, man can break it... |

Re: Sticking it to the man
From what I have been hearing, the cellphone aspect is its weakest point, unless they dump AT&T.
But, you are right. While it is cool, I would refuse to pay $600 for an IPOD , let alone one w/o cellphone capability. |

Can you do better?
Btw - all the other features on the phone still work, making it a really nice iPod. |

Re: This just shows that Apple is more like Microsoft than..
Apple has never given any hint that it cares about its consumers. Near as I can see, the cachet of being a "MacAddict" is that you worship at a superior o.s. and identify with the temple of genius. God, however, has never acknowledged his worshipers.
