I think it's hilarious that Jobs and Woz were all into phreaking and giving Ma Bell a headache back before they started Apple. Now the next generation is essentially pulling a similar move with them. I can't help but think this sort of thing makes Woz smile a bit. I doubt Jobs finds it amusing at all though.
I think there is a movie on YouTube of Woz helping some celebrity jailbreaking her phone :-)
The hardware and the company are two different things. With the iphone, apple has made (to me) the ultimate netbook/phone; but they cripple it for marketing reasons. And thank god, there are people out there like saurik to liberate our devices.
Why buy Apple hardware if you're opposed to how they do business?
Because it's really good. So is their software. So we take the tech but jailbreak out of the attitude.
But there are other hardware companies that make just as good hardware.
But not as good software
Have you owned a unibody Mac? Can you find anything out there that compares to it?
