iOS 4.1 jailbroken already, days before official release
The iPhone Dev Team have announced that they have jailbroken the as yet unreleased iOS 4.1 update, which is set to anger Jobs, who considers jailbreaking a mortal sin.
There's still a few days to go before the new iOS update is rolled out on the 8th of September, but the iPhone Dev Team has already gotten its hands on it and freed it from its walled garden, with plans to release the jailbreak to the public on launch day.
The jailbreak was made after the developers discovered two loopholes in iOS 4.1, one which involves an exploit within iOS itself, and the other which involves the boot ROM of the iPhone. The former may be easier for Apple to fix, as it will simply involve a software update, but the latter, which require a more complex method of jailbreaking, will be a much harder thing to stop.
