iPhone Updates + Unlockification★
It seems that Apple's latest update for the iPhone has made many of its users very happy indeed. Among this list of unspecified bug fixes was a wifi and camera patch. Apparently now the wifi reception range of the iPhone has greatly increased, and the camera no longer blurifies moving objects. (Source).Yes I love my crappy non-existent verbs use, don't you?
Also a team of dedicated do no gooders claim they have found the end to AT&T goodness on the iPhone. They reckon that they even managed to unlock the phone with a software driven service, no hardware meddling for them! (Site).
Now I think Apple is mighty unhappy about this, well actually I think Apple couldn't care less but AT&T are mighty unhappy about this, and they're directing their unhappiness at Apple. You know: why didn't you make the phone more unlockification proof? Geez Steve, we spent all this money ripping you and everyone else off and you didn't even make the phone like um, more magic!
Not that anyone at AT&T would have coined my new term (just yet). Unlockification is hereby taking its first few steps* out into the wild west of the intertubes.
So my advice would be that if you are using this unlockification service: change your name, dye your hair, cut your hair, get a tan / lose your tan, leave the country, and stay far away from Cupertino, before Steve Jobs co-releases with AT&T, the iKill.
All humor aside, its an interesting achievement and if I was standing next to the guys who did it, I'd hi-five them for sure.
* Official first few steps anyway...
