    Sad to see him go, but I can understand why. I'm hoping he's just taking a well deserved break. Let me be the one to say Thanks for all you have done Geohot!

    If i was him i would do the same damn thing. I would get so pissed off at people for doing that **** to me after all my hard work. Geohot is an amazing hacker and should be given way more credit than every little script kiddie gives him. Jason you are one of the people that is making him do this. if yall would stop acting like kids and let them work and do not **** he may work on it. its free when he puts it out and does not ask for any thing in return. GROW UP KIDS. Don't get me wrong i want the jailbreak just as bad as every one else but i am not going to **** at someone to try to get it done faster.

    You are a moron. It's comments like yours that led him to his decision.

    I dont blame him, people are too demanding, who in the hell made it his responsability to make sure people get their jB and unlock every month.

    it's people like those faggots on craigslist charging people $25 to do something that they begged Geohot to do for them for free. This kid goes to school/work just like everybody else, so get off his **** and figure it out yourself.

    I think he will be back if. This is like a itch jailbreaking and beating apples top guys. People he does it for donations. Let him breath. You knew the iPhone 4 would take time . It's such a great phone don't jailbreak it.

    I too remember it's all about working out how things work how great you feel when you get it to work like the wii xbox360 and even cable these are the things that make me get up in the morning I would love to know or even where to start with the iPhone think twice

    Well, a lot of newbies pissed him off. It's his right and choice to abandon jailbreaking the iphone for the public.

    Lately, there HAS been a lot of whiners on here and other blogs demanding jailbreaks and unlocks while criticizing Devteam and geohot.

    Just be patient and shut up, especially when you're getting this stuff for free.

    I was patient, quiet, and complimentary. I posted on his/comex/musclenerds twitters thanks for working hard for us and risking there phones for us. Never asked for a release date, but after the stunt he pulled on his last post basically pissing in everyone's face he has lost all respect from me.

    he wasnt the first to unlock the iPhone, the first one was the italian guy, zibri, and this just proves how immature he is, all that work for him self, its just a waist of time, Im not smarter than him, but I do better things with my time obviously, plus his not the only one

    I'm sorry to see Geohot make this kind of decision. He obviously enjoys addressing the whole jail breaking issue, so there must be something else going on for him to just up and quit.

    I and many others DEPEND on people like him to give us the freedom to use our phones in the way we want to. I don't blame people for being anxious when they suddenly find their phone un-jailbroken. Then to have to wait weeks or months for the new jailbreak to emerge is difficult for us all.

    I have iphone 4 with OS4 as well so I'm pretty much screwed until someone comes out with an appropriate jail break tool. In a free world the phones we actually BUY would be ours do to with as we wish. But this is America and most of our freedoms are replaced by corporations.

    Please reconsider Geohot. WE need you NOW more than EVER. A lot of people who pester you are probably newbies and don't appreciate what you do for the community. I and MANY others do. And we Thank You.

    PS. Why not ASK for donations. God knows you work hard enough to give us something we can use. You should make something for all your efforts. And even a token amount like $10 could build up quickly to a large amount. I'm just saying ... think about it.

    He said it himself: it was not a good idea on his side to tell everybody that he could jalbreak the i4!!
    He kind of asked for almost everybody that is waiting for the jalbreak to hate him.
    I dont hate him because he gave me the 3.1.2 jaibreak!!!
