iPhone Dev Team announced just a few minutes back that they were working hard to release tools to jailbreak and unlock iOS 4 and had warned users who relied on software method to unlock iPhone to avoid upgrading to iOS 4 until they have tested their tools with all relevant devices.
But they have just released the latest version of Ultrasn0w, their software solution to unlock all basebands since iPhone OS 3.0 including baseband 05.13.04 that comes bundled with iOS 4.
The iPhone platform has come a long way since it was first introduced in 2007 with the first generation iPhone.
While the operational elements have not changed a great deal since then, long time iPhone users will vouch for the rapid strides observed in the performance levels through the several iterations since then.
iPhone Dev Team have released beta version of redsn0w, which is a cross-platform jailbreaking, unlocking, and customizing tool for iPhones and iPod touches.
iPhone Dev Team claims that though redsn0w is not as fast as blackra1n but it can handle more variations.
The past couple of months have not been easy for Apple. Ever since Motorola Droid arrived in the market, there has been constant debate over whether or not the Droid is better than the iPhone.

After months of speculation, AT&T has finally announced that MMS will be available to their iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS customers on September 25.
Unfortunately, there is still no news as to when tethering will be available as there was no mention of it in the press release, so looks like AT&T customers will have to wait even longer for that feature.
If you remember, Apple introduced a new feature called 'Find My iPhone' in iPhone OS 3.0 for MobileMe subscribers. The feature helps iPhone users with a MobileMe account to find the location of their iPhone if it is lost or stolen.
We had doubted the effectiveness of the feature but Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has just reported that an iPhone user was able to direct the police to the location of the men who had robbed him at gunpoint thanks to the “Find My iPhone” feature.
