Just read about it on QJ, but according to the comments the news is old, which is to be expected with that site.

I just hope now, when I get my iPhone 4 in a couple weeks, it comes with iOS 4.0/4.0.1.

Yea, it came out Sunday with the catch phrase "Sunday is Funday". Its definitely super easy to use, almost impossible to screw it up. I just got my iPhone 4 on Friday (Canadian Launch) so it was a very nice surprise that this came out so soon.

I have most of the hacks I used on my 3G like lockinfo, 5 icon dock, activator, sbsettings, 3G unrestrictor, google voice, instalous, ect.

Other things like WeatherIcon, Cydgets, and Cyntacts I couldn't get working.

Thanks for making this thread Larry, have some rep.

However, I can't actually slide the slider. It just doesn't move at all, the text is also not animated which leads me to believe the browser is the problem.

Anyone got any advice?

EDIT: Had javascript disabled >.<

Jailbreaking now, will let you know the outcome.

EDIT: All done, fuck yeah.

Yep, exactly why people are worried and why I'm tempted to JB my iPhone even though I wouldn't use it for anything else really.

If you use this site, you have a chance of leaving your device open for malicious code.

...umm, I don't think you get it.

ANY site could use this code for malicious purposes. That's why there's security concerns. Using Jailbreakme.com will not open your device to malicious code. Infact, you can download a patch that will stop sites from using this exploit for malware.

The code that the jailbreak site can be used by other sites to setup malicious software on your iPhone/iPod touch. By using the jailbreak, you are able to install a patch that helps protect you from the same code.

There are concerns from security experts that the code that is used for installing the jailbreak will be used for installing malware onto devices without the owners knowledge.

You said this...

You implied that if you used jailbreakme.com, that you would be open to malware afterwards.

The fact is that users can be MORE protected after they jailbreak.
Any iPhone or iPod touch is open to malicious code BEFORE they jailbreak.
It is not CAUSED by the jailbreak.
