George Hotz, the New Jersey teenager, who hacked Apple's iPhone to work on any other wireless networks besides AT&T's (visit iPhone JTAG for detailed tutorials), is going to get his wish to have a car and 3 new 8 GB iPhones ! Excerpts from Mercury News:
George Hotz, who last week found a way to manipulate Apple's new cell phone so that it will work on other networks besides AT&T's, is trading one of the two phones he hacked for a new car. And, as Hotz would put it, it's a "sweet" one at that, a Nissan 350Z.
"This has been a great end to a great summer," Hotz wrote on his blog.
The teen said he is trading the iPhone to Terry Daidone, co-founder of CertiCell, a Louisville, Ky-based mobile phone repair company. In exchange, Daidone is going to buy him the car and will give him three brand new iPhones, which Hotz plans to hand out to members of his informal team that helped crack the iPhone.
As part of the deal, Hotz will have a paid consulting job for CertiCell. He plans to visit the company's Kentucky offices later this week to demonstrate his iPhone hack in person.
The 17-year-old boy is so admirable!
