Just wondering, since this is a breakthrough development for both the iPhones and iPod Touch, why not do mass unlocking/jailbreaking? Organize a big meetup with everyone and do jailbreaking/unlocking together.

Just a thought.

Restart your iPhone after every major installation, dont be too giddy to straight away jump into the apps.

If this already make you chicken out, then huge installations such as from apps like Scrabble, or Foreflight will make you weep.

It may not just be the apps, but the combination of the apps plus your custom IPSW. Maybe Pwnage 2.0 is not ready for primetime.

First of all, why are you using someone else's firmware but your own? His configuration may be totally different from yours. Cook your own using the Pwnage app, and go from there. You're already taking a huge risk running custom firmwares that you dont know the origin of.

This is not "tampal, pakai, buang", this is your beloved iPhone, man!

Then for heaven's sake, be patient and wait it out till the Windows version comes out.

This is not a race, people. Even if it is, the point of a race is to survive the race and come out breathing in the end. It is better to end up later but safe and sound, than rushing to be the first at the finish line and crash and burn.

Which is better, waiting for a few more days and doing this safely, or rushing this up and end up having to wait even longer because you screw up and had to get a new iPhone? Hell, someone at Apple could even disguise himself as a helpful Samaritan, and slip it out hoping to prove a point about jailbreaking and its consequences. Think, people, think!

That's a great suggestion. I am supporting it 100%.

You see, if we do it this way, the guys who are stuck with only Windows, can still use Pwnage on people with Macs at these gatherings, to properly cook and install the custom firmwares. I see people updating left and right with custom firmwares that they dont know come from where, without a single worry of that custom firmware bricking their iPhones. This is dangerous practice.
