iPhone 4 jailbroken again. You can't have it
Homebrew, I choose you
Hacker extraordinaire Geohot has successfully jailbroken the iPhone 4. Images have appeared on the internet showing his device running Cydia, the application of choice for jailbreakers.
Geohot says that he has no plans to release said hack.
This isn't the first such story, of course. At the end of June we wrote that developer Comex had jailbroken the iPhone 4 and got Cydia running on it. Like Geohot, Comex hasn't made the jailbreak generally available, possibly in anticipation of the forthcoming iOS 4.1 update.
