We told you earlier about how enterprising hackers are trying to unlock and otherwise crack Apple's mighty iPhone, and to that end hackers have released the first firmware image containing the iPhone's OS and other default settings.  Just think, someday the iPhone could support other GSM networks, stereo bluetooth or even install OS level third party applications.  Oh, the possibilities.

Don't expect any of those hacks to come soon, and even when they do come, they'll likely void your warranty.
