obviously, but the fact that its been done already means it shouldnt be long at all after the release to the general public on the 21st that we will see the DevTeam release
This may be a newbie question here, but what's the likelihood of someone figuring out how to jailbreak and/or unlock the new iPhone 4 for use overseas. The jailbreaking is necessary to unlock right? I don't necessarily need the crazy custom programs that people create but if it's necessary to unlock the phone then of course I'll do it.
But is it pretty much assumed that someone will determine how to unlock the phone sometime soon after it releases? I mean, all of the other iPhones have been unlocked right?

iOS4 hasnt been released to the general public. This is just the Golden Master (GM), aka final release copy, which was sent to dev's.
So no, must wait until the 21st.
Very likely, give it a few weeks and you should have an unlocked iPhone.
If you're downloading if from a torrent site or something then there wouldn't be anything stopping it from working but from Apples stance you have to be a developer.
Though I'm not a developer nor have I installed iOS4 so don't quote me on that one.

I'm pretty sure you're wrong. People that aren't on dev accounts updated to 4.0 last night.

Jailbreaking is a hack to the software...which requires you to have the software beforehand, which is only given to dev's.
Unless they got it from someone with a developers account, through torrenting or however, the general public does not have iOS4. It will be released on the 21st. It was stated in the keynote.
It works without needing to be registered on a developer's account. This has been established in several other threads. I personally haven't updated to iOS4, though.
Any updating you do with unreleased software, though, is of course at your own risk.
Sorry, I didnt mean to mislead you. Its been proven that it does indeed work without registering your UDID as long as you have iTunes 9.2 but the only people who are supposed to get it are the people with dev accounts.
I was just saying it hasnt been released to the general public...aka hit "update" in iTunes will not download iOS4 yet....not until the 21st
what's the chance however that jailbreak apps such as miwi or iblacklist would even be compatible with this OS anyways?
lol yeah I understand, it's cool. I should have clarified.Sorry, I didnt mean to mislead you. Its been proven that it does indeed work without registering your UDID as long as you have iTunes 9.2 but the only people who are supposed to get it are the people with dev accounts.

That's my question. All I really care about anymore (jb-wise, that is) is myWi. I wonder if it works with 4.0 ... ?
