All they have probably done here is hacked the 2.0 firmware to include the installer app and then loaded it on first generation hardware with the bootloader vulnerability.
- nailer 18y agoAgreed. But ziPhone on Thursday (maybe it's still Thursday where you are) announced they've jailbroken firmware 2.0. See http://status.ziphone.org/ http://status.ziphone.org/
