Hackers revive iPhones
You've got to hand it to Apple: their iPhone has certainly had an impact on the market. Of course, at least one part of that impact Apple probably could have done without. Customers have been truly steamed about the number of iPhones turned into non-functional (yet still sleek) bricks with the latest software update. Now, a group of hackers says that it has developed a method for un-bricking the iPhones. Their software, they say, will restore the phones to full functionality while maintaining the unlocked nature of the original hack. Another group is telling customers to wait--they say an "official" fix is on the way. Whether you have the patience to wait is up to you, but it's nice to know that you can nickname your iPhone Lazarus with the latest hack.
