After months of waiting, not being able to restart your toy unless you were near a computer, or had access to a dongle to send the RunRS commands, the iPhone Dev Team has finally released the full Jailbreak! Turns out, they've been hanging on to this, just in case the exploit was in later iPhone generations. This would have been a brilliant move, had it not been for a certain group of people leaked their information, and began selling it. Sadly, this means that Apple has access to the exploit, and can patch it in later versions, but on the plus side, we've got it now! Besides, that's what our culture's about these days anyway, right?
Personally, I'll be waiting to test this once it's in a preened and polished state, straight from the iPhone Dev Team. Now, I'm not saying that there's any danger to your device from doing this, it's just time consuming, and I'd rather not beta test in the middle of the night. Well, not every night..

MuscleNerd, of the iPDT, sent the iPod community a message which basically says the same thing. It's all pretty straight-forward, but unless my iPod crashes tonight, I'm not "touching" it. Oh, puns.
I'll write in more depth later,

EDIT: I will most likely not be writing for the next few days, I'll be on my way to Cleveland to visit my brother (founder of Telesaur telecommuting), among other things.
