Something I found about ZiPhone

[nish123456]

Big warning to any ZiPhone users. Zibri’s WiFi fix is extremely dangerous. It hard codes your WiFi adapter’s MAC address to “00:5a:49:42:52:49″. This is ASCII for “Zibri”. This will cause major networking issues. All network cards sold are guaranteed to have a unique MAC address. It’s the lowest layer of how packets are routed. Now any two phones on the same network will not be able to operate properly on the network. Bottom line: stay away from ZiPhone.

(Taken from here)

Can anyone tell me if this is true?

I think they fixed the "Grey WiFi" issue in ZiPhone 3.0 so it doesnt happen anymore when you jailbreak using ZiPhone. Just make sure you have version 3.0

Exactly.

My sister and I have Ziphone-broken iPods and when in the same house (and therefore network) we have.....zero problems.

The other stuff from that link is interesting, though. But I think (based on what it says) both of our iPods are the older models, anyway. If that even applies to iPods.

Older models? There's only 1 iPod Touch... unless you mean different firmware versions? Or different internal hard disk space?
