I've used msftguy's SSH ramdisk tool plus the iphone-dataprotection tools on Google Code. Takes about 20 minutes maximum to bruteforce the 4 digit PIN. What the poster doesn't mention that this only works on devices with iBoot bootloader exploits, which is currently the A4/iPhone 4 and lower. The 4S, 5, 5S, 5C etc are all safe from this.

Additionally, its rather easy to switch your lock password to be regular text. Good luck guessing the length and the passphrase I use to lock my phone now when the keyboard comes up.

  True, but you can still access files on the device even with a complex passcode using the SSH ramdisk tool.

    Doesn't that require the phone to have been jailbroken?
