The streets are talking and they say that Apple might already be using the next firmware on their display models. So what’s so wrong with 1.1.1 that they wouldn’t want it used on their display models?

It really does kind of make you wonder. However if this is true, that means that the next firmware update, if its this version, won’t brick your iPhone again because this rumor was floating around shortly before the iPhone Dev Team jailbroken 1.1.1.

Hopefully that’s the case, we don’t need to go through re-hacking the iPhone every few months do we? I mean, how many times does the iPhone Dev Team have to re-invent the wheel before Apple just leaves it alone and hires the iPhone Dev Team?

Maybe they are going to keep releasing firmware updates in quick succession and wear down the iPhone Dev Team into stopping releasing an updated unlock program. That is what I would do if I wanted to put a stop to unlocking the iPhone.

If that became the case, I’m pretty sture they’d wear down the users too. Nobody would want to update their phones anymore.

Lots of people out there wishing Apple to put an end to the whole unlocking activity. Sometimes articles and comments seem to imply that a new firmware will re-lock the phones. Well, good morning: Apple can’t force people to upgrade, and it happens that different keyboards, or louder volume, or wi-fi music store are definitely unimportant add-ons (unless you’re a teenager, of course). Like Lynn correctly says: I have a FW 1.0.2 unlocked iPhone, and it will stay so until a) Apple decides to do the reasonable thing, that is unlock the phones, or b) someone releases an easy and reliable method in order to unlock newer firmwares. So… a lot of noise for nothing.
