iPhone firmware 2.1 Jailbreak out within days

Though many countries now have the iPhone on sale, Jailbreaking still remains hot. The latest iPhone firmware 2.1 (released along with iTunes 8 ) has been hacked by the iPhone Dev Team, allowing 3rd party unauthorized apps to run on the iPhone 3G and the iPod Touch 1G.

The iPhone OS 2.1 brought several updates like improved battery live, stability of apps and reception. This is a relief for iPhone users suffering from poor reception and will also give a breather to AT&T’s network.

Apparently iTunes 8.0 has multiple security features to check Jailbreaking and hacking of the iPhone. But for the moment the hackers have managed to steal the show…!
