As you well know, the biggest problem at the moment in the community iPhone this tethered jailbreak, which we discussed at length here, caused by the new bootrom introduced in all terminals iPhone 3GS/iPod Touch 3G manufactured from November (October according to some) onwards. The savior of the community iPhone since the end of last year it was without a doubt Geohot who initially managed to make the first jailbreak method for iPhone 3GS and then to find the exploit for the new baseband 05.11.x.
After learning the news that the new terminals will have a hardware modification that will make them unable to have a full jailbreak, the whole community turned its eyes to Dev Team si Geohot from whom they hoped (some still hope) to find a solution for this new obstacle imposed by Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),. Unfortunately, not yet Geohot, neither Dev Team they failed to produce a tool that would completely jailbreak the new ones iPhone/iPod Touch 3Gs and at least from geohot we have signals that he will never produce something like this.
As we explain in the article about the history of the tethered jailbreak, this is not the first time that the community iPhone faced with something like this, initially the owners of iPhone 2G they went through a similar problem, the problem that found its solution first by making a hardware device or dongle with which you could restart the phone and then by a software solution. Unfortunately Geohot he chose to go the hardware solution path and said that he is thinking of manufacturing devices with the help of which you can restart the phone wherever you are without having to connect the phone to the computer. To find out if people are interested in such a product, he made a poll here where he asks how much people would be willing to pay for such a device.
Depending on the result of the poll, it will be decided whether their manufacture will start or not. Would you pay money for such a device? If so, how many?
