Jailbreak for IPhone 3G S hits the web


George Hotz, the 19 year old hacker from New Jersey, has released the jailbreak tool for the recently launched IPhone 3G S. While everybody was expecting that the jailbreak tools will be released by Dev-Team, George Hotz's sudden announcement was a shock to the entire scene. It looks like George Hotz is tired of waiting for the Dev-Team, whose original plan was to delay the launch of jailbreaking tools until Apple realeases IPhone OS 3.1. He says that, "Normally I don't make tools for the general public, and rather wait for the dev team to do it. But guys, whats up with waiting until 3.1? That isn't how the game is played. We release, Apple fixes, we find new holes. It isn't worth waiting because you might have the "last" hole in the iPhone. What last hole...this isn't golf. I'll find a new one next week". While Iphone 3G S users across the globe are thanking George Hotz for his efforts, it's quite clear that the Dev-Team is insanely angry with him right now. Hit on the read link for his blog post where you can find the download link and instructions. It should be noted that the tool is in beta stage and currently works only in Windows.
