Even though they said it couldn't be done, the resourceful people in the iPhone development community have done it again with a fully jailbroken version of Apple's 1.1.3 firmware for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Unfortunately, the developers responsible for the hack have announced that they will be holding off the release of the new jailbreak for now.

According to Pedgie06 from the MacRumors forums, the new jailbreak won't be available until Apple releases the software development kit (SDK) this February. This is probably to avoid any future patches which will nerf the recently developed jailbreak.

The new jailbreak method is reported to be rather complex as well since it requires some hardware modifications to be done just to get it working.

If you don't believe us, you can take a look below at the video of a jailbroken iPod Touch running on firmware 1.1.3. It even shows the corresponding Installer.app for the jailbreak. Either way, people can expect the jailbreak application to arrive soon.

that's awesome they jailbroke 1.1.3 already. kinda sucks we have to wait for it tho. but I understand why. all you guys who work on this stuff are great. my iPot (iPod Touch) would not be nearly as cool with out the 3rd party apps I got on it thanks to you guys. keep up the good work. Ill be looking froward to using 1.1.3 when the method is released!

Really smart move. This prevents apple from knowing what they did.

Seems Apple are following Sony in terms of *****ty security.. :P

And in terms of shutting out people who mod their products with each new firmware update, despite the number of people who buy their products in order to mod them.
