iphone unlocked
George Hotz, a teenager from New Jersey, has unlocked the iPhone allowing it to be used with networks other than AT&T. The unlocking process is a complicated one and involves hardware hacking. George says it takes around 2 hours to hack the iPhone.
It is not clear if Apple would make modifications to the iPhone to make it invulnerable to this hack before its launch in European market.
Meanwhile, the unlocked iPhone has been traded by George for "Nissan 350Z and 3 8GB iPhones".
Hopefully by understanding the hardware hack, someone would be able to come up with a software to unlock the iPhone.
