Zero Details

There is a link to a chinese web site (english translated via google).

That web site just say: fool cpu, software unlock. No details, anyone can say I've managed software unlock, will release it later.
 
Another one hacker with the username xyhh77 appeared claiming that he has software unlocked the v1.1.2

"OTB 1.1.2 software unlock will be released after Chinese new year holiday!
Currently I’ve got a little bit move on the progress of developing. I will concentrate in developing this crack during the Chinese new year holiday.

I will open a thread on another forum (apple.com3 Taiwan) to unlock 3 free iPhones. I welcome you guys to come and see the OTB 1.1.2 software unlocking Live Show.

After 3 free unlock proof, I will unlock one per 300RMB (about $41USD). 10% goes to paYea team donation. (This team job is to translate iphone software in Chinese).
I will released it as FREE software after I got a MacbookPro.
"

Something is going on in China... Do they know something that the rest of the world doesn't? I also read in iPhone Hellas that some Russian users over www.iphones.ru are holding in their hands v1.1.3 iphones! Is it possible that some iPhones were shipped/sold with the new firmware and the hackers have them / so they can use them to unlock the baseband+bootloader?

I don't see any concrete proof yet. Let some trusted websites get a hold of it and test it as a third party for the rest of us I say.
 
I guess sometimes it's good to be an early adopter! Even though I paid over $600 for the phone at least i was able to have it fully unlocked and use it as i wished.

My guess is that they are only going to make it harder and harder with future released, but obviously as long as there is a demand for it to be hacked people will do it.
