In Jailbreaking and Unlocking terms (iPhone 2G Specifically)
In Jailbreaking terms, this iPhone was a masterpiece! It is susceptible to 24kPwn for an untethered jailbreak and always will, there are no Apple signature checks on ECID or even signed Img3s! This means creating jailbreaks will be easy and they will always be untethered Untethered Jailbreak. As for an Unlock, the iPhone 2G is permanently sorted too. The iPhone Dev-Team have created BootNeuter that will flash itself to the bootrom and unlock, regardless of firmware. All that is required is an exploit in the firmware. These have always been plentiful and there is one even ready for iPhoneOS 3.2 when it comes out.
