The iPhone / iPod Touch dev scene has been an incredible asset for anyone lucky enough to get their hands on one of the devices. Their tireless efforts have provided us with a SIM unlock, app installer, countless applications, and much more, all in spite of Apple / AT&T’s efforts to shut them down. The most recent offering from the community comes in the form of a one-click Jailbreak solution. The software is compatible with both the iPhone and the iPod Touch, and offers a slick Safari-based Jailbreak method. Simply point your iPhone’s browser to http://jailbreakme.com and follow the onscreen prompts. 4-8 seconds later — Voila! This process, like all current 1.1.1 Jailbreak efforts, utilizes the much-publicised .tiff exploit in mobile safari. As always, be warned that this may affect your manufacturer’s warranty, so proceed at your own will, please.
