Apples cat and mouse game continues with the iPhone hacking community, with Apple now shipping out updated versions of the current iPhone 3gs to prevent tampering.
Apple has apparently updated the BootROM for the iPhone 3gs to iBoot-359.32. If this is the case it means the exploit currently being used, known as "24kpwn", will no longer allow users to run unauthorised code on the iPhone OS.
MuscleNerd, a member of the Dev Team, noted "This is the first time ever that Apple has done a BootROM update in the middle of a product line without a new hardware model."
So in the mean time, all you jailbreakers out there, or anybody that is thinking of jailbreaking for the first time, make sure to future proof yourself now ( see earlier posts on grabbing ECID and SHSH files ), to make sure you always have the option of jailbreaking.
If your buying a new model that has been updated, keep your fingers crossed that Geohot / The Dev Team / or the Chronic Dev Team will find a new hole to exploit!!!
