To all YOU people negging this article, YES YOU, get a life. People like Hotz are the ones who should be encouraged and supported, they dig in and find out ways to work things outside the box. What have YOU done besides sitting on your fat asses and buying ATT/Apple stock?

I called the PAC-10 but they didn't seem to care. Anyone get a hold of the Big 12 yet?

Wonder what the complaining stockholders would be saying if the iPhones had not be sold and volume say went down by about 1,000,000? Get real you guys! Congrats to Fortune for publishing – That also their Freedom of Choice and the furthering of Competition, and seeing how the 'Market Decides'

Let me know if it works.

Why do we let them get away with this type behavior? Strangling the creativity in our youth, inhibiting free trade and commerce. These bright young men should be applauded for their heroic efforts to give people choice. Why all of the legal machinations against the young and impressionable?

I for one don't want to live in a world where Steve Jobs and the iGustapo can walk into the High School Science fair and start turning over tables screaming,

"No! No! That's my idea! Don't change our stuff you brats! I'll sue your parents! Guards catch that one, beat him! Muahahahahaha!"

An old friend wrote me just yesterday;

"… My son Scotty looked up at me the other day and asked, 'Mommy, can I make a better radio pretty please?' – Steve, I was heartbroken but had to tell him, 'No Scotty, I'm sorry but It might make Steve Jobs mad'. At that moment I saw the twinkle leave his eye and we both sobbed …"

People! For goodness sake, protect your children from these people. Let the children's laughter remind us of how we used to be.

It is estimated that a third of the iphones sold are unlocked/hacked. How that hurts apple in any way is beyond me. You need to be more informed when posting comments.

so please, someone tell me how this hurts the public. how it hurts apple? please, tell me. cause i don't have a clue.

as for bricking the phone..yeah, thats the risk. SO again, i'll ask you…how the hell does this hurt you? the public? Apple?

hacking…please. Thats like saying if i buy a book and tear out a page its hacking. I bought the book, i'll paint it or burn it or read it.

Undermining the business structure? Please…1/3 of their sales. Duh. you've got more education that intelligence. I'd say go back to school but sounds like you've already got too much of that. You need to get a life.

SG has it right. you are all suckers of propaganda from the mobile operators.

"You are enabling and propagating fraudulent actions. "

Where should i start with that one.. oh, i know…how about this…."By believing the propaganda from the MONOPOLIES the cell phone companies have, you are an idiot. Service agreements are written by 100 lawyers to screw the consumer and maximize profits for the companies. Ever try to get out of a service agreement with a carrier? Ever received an incorrect invoice from a cell phone company? Ever had ANY problems and tried to rectify them with a cell phone carrier? You really believe they are looking out for YOUR best interest? You need to get a life and look around." Clear enough?

Yes, I'm angry. Im angered by Ignorant people. And there seems to be a large amount with nothing better to do than post comments.

He needs this job.
