Hacker proof?

Some blogger said the a4 chip's got secrets. Like apple set something up on it to beat jailbreaking.

There will be a small army of mod chip sellers on Ebay within 120 seconds of iPad teardown.

If you want custom stuff get an android tablet. The microstar is going to be hot. No hardware restrictions or DRM garbage.

Somehow I don't see people lining up to crack open their iPads.

Re: Hacker proof?

Believe it or not, I'm planning on leaving the iPad alone....

However, the new iPhone will be a different story....

Right now the iPhone 3.1.3 w/ the new bootrom has the hackers stumped, I wonder what the iPad will bring.

I had to do a warranty exchange and am now stuck w/ a 3.1.3 iPhone I can't jailbreak.

That said, as soon as I can jailbreak either -- I will.
