Those of you waiting for an iPhone 4 unlock solution can now jailbreak your iPhones and get to unlocking with the latest version of ultrasn0w on Cydia. Owners of the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G can all set up their devices with ultrasn0w version 1.0-1 to operate on carriers other than AT&T.

Apple sells unlocked iPhones in several countries, however in the US the iPhone is locked to AT&T thanks to an exclusive contract between Apple and the carrier. AT&T charges subscribers for international roaming, with the highest price attached to data plans overseas.

Comex's release of in-browser jailbreaking software for the iPhone has revealed a major security hole in all iPhones.

Now that the US government has legalized jailbreaking for smart phone users across the board, Comex has stepped in and released the latest iOS jailbreak solution online.

The Dev-Team has announced two sites that will mirror the software, accessible by just visiting these links from your Mobile Safari browser on the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. The new release is called JailbreakMe 2.0 and can be accessed at jailbreakme.com and jailbreakme.modmyi.com.

Unfortunately for some iPhone 3G users the iOS 4 update did not go very well. Reports have surfaced that the new firmware has problems running on the older hardware. The good news is that Apple is working on iOS 4.1, which will alleviate many of the problems with iPhone 3G compatibility.

In the meantime, upgraders have experienced premature battery drain and excessive heat coming from their devices. Performance has slowed to a crawl for some users as speed issues dominate, with many unable to run simple tasks without a headache.
