Is the new 3G iPhone next on list to be unlocked by the yesteryear iPhone unlocker kid George Hotz?
The newly released 3G iPhone is the next to be unlocked by the previous version of iPhone unlocker expert George Hotz. Just the last year, Hotz was an ordinary kid from New Jersey with a glittering new iPhone, and a talent in engineering, a dictatorship questioning kid with lots of free time and a talent to break the code of anything working on a circuit board.
What’s next for Hotz?
As the time took its troll, Steve Jobs released the first iPhone to use the AT&T network and locked on to its services, which, most of the users despised for not being able to choose their own networks to use iPhone on. And, our Hotz was one of them too. He spent hours and hours of his time to unlock the mobile and posted on his blog over how to make the iPhone work on T-Mobile network. Despite the futile attempts by Apple last winter to hold back the mobiles by updating its firmware, the code was cracked again.

Hotz, now working in Google, as an intern and working on Google Street View technology after taking a leave from Rochester Institute of Technology where he is pursuing his biotechnology, is not on the urge to unlock the new mobile. He says that he has not got the new mobile into his hands yet. But, once he lays his hands on it, who knows, he might get into the task again.
As per Hotz, he bought a new site, yiphone.org. This site doesn’t have any information yet. But, if the community fails to bring any solution for the new 3G iPhone in the near time, Hotz says, You would have to check this site for the next steps.
