Who are these brilliant Hackers? I cant even imagine that knowledge you would have to possess to hack the Ipod Touch?

Who is Ericka? is that a chick?

Who is this 13 year old kid that claims to have been the first to jail break the Ipod?

Anyway...i just want to state my great appreciation for what these guys have done and their patience in answering all the questions from people like me.

Thanks guys!!! You are amazing and extremely talented. I hope you are all making alot of money lol
 
I just turned 13 last week and I've been helping iPod Linux since I was 11, they think Im 19 though!
 
yea arix didnt hack it he just wrote a program for that did it automatically so you didnt have to do it manually, and his program wasnt first, touchfree was the first (i think, but i did come before iJailbreak) though touchfree is for windows and ijailbreak is for intel macs
 
Here’s to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
And while some see them as the crazy ones,
We see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think
they can change the world,
Are the ones who do.
 
i think his/her name is AriX on this forum. Plus they did not hack it first but made the first automated jailbreak for mac.

still quite an accomplishment for a 13 year old. I certainly wasn't writing that kind of software at 13.

You turned 13 last week? Odd that, says you've been here since September, and it's against forum rules for people under 13 to register.. ;)
