Hackers claim to untie Apple's iPhone from AT&T


A group called iPhoneSIMfree.com said it had developed a piece of software that, when installed on an iPhone, allows the use of rival mobile services such as T-Mobile, according to widely followed technology blog Engadget.com.


You can't do that ! Thats OUR phone ! We own ... oh oh ... did we really make you pay full price for that phone , in advance ?

LOL !!!

Sorry , I now work in the cell phone industry instead of the cable modem industry , and I happen to know they're not giving you any discounts at all for those phones and demanding full price up front for them.

oopsie !


AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel declined to comment on the Engadget report and an Apple spokesman could not be immediately reached. An e-mail sent to iPhoneSIMfree.com was not immediately answered.


They're probably wondering "what do we do now ????". Can't sue people for messing with their own equipment , now can you ?

I predict the next great fad in phones they'll only sell for 95% of the price, and use their 5% ownership to sue people who try this. Too late for the iphones though.
