PwnageTool now supports latest iPhone firmware

14 September 2008 16:29 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz | 2 comments

The iPhone Dev Team, the makers of the iPhone jailbreaking tool PwnageTool have announced that that the application now works with new iPhone firmware 2.1 and will work with iTunes 8 with no patches.

The group did say however that the application had not been tested on the second generation iPod Touch but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

The App store has seen over 100 million downloads in 2 months yet there is still huge interest in jailbreaking the iPhone and iPod Touch, especially for homebrew applications such as the NES emulator that Apple refuses to accept to the App Store.

For those interested, the tool is available here: PwnageTool.
