Been waiting to upgrade your iPhone? Can’t because it’s unlocked? Well, wait no longer. Sherif Hashim, an iPhone hacker, has discovered an exploit that seems to unlock the latest baseband. Not a lot of other information other than now the exploit is in the Dev Team’s hands and they will, like some creaky Soviet politburo, release the unlock to the masses.

NB. This will unlock the iPhone for use on T-Mobile and foreign GSM networks. This does not mean you’ll be able to use it on Sprint or Verizon, so don’t ask.
