The fruit CAN fall farther from the tree

In a spate of ingenuity and enterprise a NJ teenager has cracked the lock that binds an iPhone to AT&T’s network. Doing this is not for the faint of heart as it requires wielding a soldering iron on a piece of expensive telephony gear. Of course you will void the warranty, so why ask?

But the more adventurous Europeans might take note that doing this hack also makes the phone available in their networks as well. iPhone right now is only available for the North American market. It would make a most sporting piece of bling down at the ‘Harrow and Plough’. Article at the link.
