OMFG! The iDongle says “screw off Tethered Jailbreak!”

I think this is going to be huge, and is probably already going to be the best creation of 2010. With all the fighting Apple insists on doing agains the Jailbreak Community, we might have something that will slap Apple right in it’s core… The iDongle!

I’m sure there are some users out there with a 3G[S] with the newer Bootrom, or maybe someone that has updated foolishly and is stuck with a ‘tethered’ Jailbreak, but for those of you that aren’t aware of what this is, I’ll explain a bit. With some of the newer devices, iPod touch 2g(MC edition) and 3rd gen, as well as the latest round of 3gs’; Apple has plugged some holes and exploits and made it so those of you with these devices after a Jailbreak have to ‘re-jailbreak’ your iDevice every time it shuts off. Now, fortunetly I don’t have a newer 3gs, mine was purchased right after laungh, so I don’t have to deal with this, but I jailbreak many phones and iPods for people, and they are really put off by the idea have not really letting their phone die unless they are near a computer. I completely understand why they’d hate this.

But luckily a peeved Electronics Engineer hated his tethered jailbreak, so he decided it was time to do something about it.
The iDongle is a prototype piece of hardware able to boot your jailbroken device with the lame arse “tethered boot” to jailbreak and hactivate(if not already done).

There isn’t a price yet, but it looks like it might be around 35euros, which honestly, I think people would pay up to $100 for something like this, because there is no guarantee we will be able to find anything that will get us away from the tethered jailbreak.

I’ll try to keep everyone updated on this, since it is a huge breakthrough in the Jailbreaking community.
