iPod Touch and iPhone v1.1.1 now Jailbroken.

errr… jailbreaked? The point is, some enterprising computer-savvy persons have succeeded in opening up these two devices’ RAMdrives and allowing the installation of 3rd party applications, as well as restoring iPhone apps such as Google maps and Mail to the Touch that were somehow not included. After initial reports, public beta, and lengthy instructions for jailbreaking your Touch were released, yesterday we got news of an automatic jailbreak, both for Windows and Mac. Where’s the love for Linux, hmmm?
Being able to apply 3rd party applications to the Touch will help transition it from “just” a media player/MID into a functional PDA. Let’s see how fully functional the developers can make it.
Thanks to go Engadget and iPod Touch Hacks for the scoops. And a special thanks to all those who worked on this break, whomever they may be. (cue mysterious music)
