I'm looking forward to faster safari and native wifi hotspot!

Agree. I dont even care if it loads the pages that much faster. As long as its overall stability is much better I will be happy.
@i0n1c: @comex considering that I am an ass I might keep it for myself and never release it
Would almost like to see someone do this would suck for the people waiting patiently but IMO serves the ungrateful group that starts to flame within hrs of an ios release... I still cant figure why apple does not just make ios more open... would think there would be quite a bit of profit in it. Maybe it would be a big turn off to the carriers though to allow a device on their network that they have no real control over or to have control over would have to monitor the type of data like crazy...
Because Apple isn't making a killing from the 30% they get off of every transaction that goes through the App Store? Not really a reason to open the iOS platform up. If you want open there is always Android.
Seems like the 4.3 JB could be held back....

With Apple already baking 4.3.1 the first one releasing an iOS 4.3 jailbreak will pretty much burn the exploit

Well Apple should release 4.3.1 very soon, because tomorrow everybody knows that @0xcharlie popped an iPhone 4 at #pwn2own through Safari.

My understanding is that Charlie performed his exploit on a device with 4.2.1 not 4.3. He said as much, and noted that with the addition of ASLR on 4.3 his hack would not work as it did - he would have to do significantly more work to bypass the new measures. (But apparently the hole itself is still there.)
Not sure Apple would jump to release a .1 for something like that. We'll see.

Neh Ill just wait patiently for a stable JB and continue on with my iphone like I have been for a while now. And some profit is better than no profit. Like Microsoft giving students discounts on MS office... think they did it to benefit the student or they saw it as putting ms office in the price range of a student so they will quit pirating it? MS would rather take a small hit on profit instead of no profit. So still does not make sense why Apple would not take the little extra bit of profit instead of no profit. Maybe Apple does not want to deal with the security issues that can arise from an open platform and an ignorant user?
God, why dont you make one faster then?
You know its so easy you just whip up thousands of lines of code and make sure everything works perfect without bugs and a few minutes later its done
Get a clue.
I highly doubt Apple will release a patch that fast.
Last time with jailbreakme it took them a few weeks.
By that time many people can get 4.3 shsh's and JB on that.
And not bother updating "accidentally" to 4.3.1 cause all it will do is break the JB.
And the faster Safari!
Haha i hear ya! That means we'll get 4.3 right when iOS5 is released! I'm really hoping we get improved notifications w/ that one!
