MAC Firmware Update Breaks Unlocked iPhones!!
http://blog.wired.com/monkeybites/20...-latest-f.html

Quote:
After warning customers that the next firmware update for its iPhone may render unlocked versions of the device unusable, Apple pushed out a new firmware version which does exactly that.

A report from Macworld confirms that running a firmware update on an iPhone unlocked with anySIM will result in the creation of an iBrick. The phone spits out a "SIM card not valid" error when it's rebooted, and you can't gain access to any of the menus or base functions of the phone -- even when the original AT&T SIM card is inserted. The update also undoes the jailbreak procedure required to gain access to the iPhone's file system.

I am sure if you register it with AT&T it will work again.

From what I read some apple stores will fix it.Other will tell you you are screwed.
I give it 3 weeks before the hackers unlock the new firmware. Then I'll buy one for me.

Because he does not give using his name does not mean he does not give to charity. Sure he is not on any high power lists because that would require he give under his name. He gives and requests to be anonymous.

If I hacked into Mandy's site, would you consider yourself a prick for disabling my access?

The irony is you used the same reasoning to assume he does not give at all.

exactly, the iphone comes with a "contract" of sorts, and part of that contract is to NOT alter the system of the phone

so, if you get an iphone and hack it, you are voiding any and all warranty
