reports the iPhone Dev-Team has managed to unlock the iPhone 3G. The tools aren't out yet, but the team promises it will be available by December 31st.
The hack isn't out yet (the team says they're shooting for a December 31st release), and it requires that you've got a baseband of 2.11.07 or earlier, but when it drops, the crew seems fairly confident it will result in freedom from carrier oppression. The team is packaging the app -- formerly codenamed "yellowsn0w" -- into a user-friendly app a la PwnageTool and QuickPwn.
