If you unlocked your iPhone it may get bricked with the new updates...

So Apple casually announces modified iPhones might get bricked in the next update. And for those of you who don't know Bricking = Bad! Bricking a device is in essence making that shiny uber device into a fancy paper weight or BRICK...

Apples says that any running of 3rd party applications voids your warranty. Sound familiar? Yup we called it over here @ AtA - There is going to be another Sony PSP style war heating up. Now lets remember what the Sony fanboys did when threatened with something similar?

They created custom firmware for their beloved device and I have been... I mean they have been running it since inception. All the good stuff from home brew and access to all the legit fanyboy goodness.

So have some questions Who's working on it? All that money spent to unlock the shiny iPhone how much is it worth to customize it? Where's that guy dark alex who has been keeping up with Sony?

Anyone got a iPhone dump? iPhone dev wiki dudes? Anyone? Buller?

I think the $20,000 dollar question is really...

If Apple knows about the potential issue did they do it on purpose? And even if it wasn't couldn't it have been avoided? I mean apple mentions the anySim app by name...

Who are you guys fooling? Certainly not us... Oh and it looks like there is a update coming out for downloading music directly to your phone.... Oh wait don't do it!
