Several Tweets have surfaced within the last day or so unofficially confirming the delay of Apple’s iOS 4.0.1/ iOS 4.1 mobile operating system. The reason? Cupertino-based Apple is allegedly taking some extra time to patch up the exploit which allows consumers to jailbreak their iOS 4.0 devices.
In addition, claims are made that Apple is awaiting the release of the iPhone 4 jailbreak by the iPhone Dev Team to see if they have “missed” any other potential exploits that would allow users to “free” their devices from Apple’s walled garden.
We should take caution with this information, however. The sources reportedly work for Apple, but only at retail stores. It’s no surprise that Apple Store employees are quite simply not in the loop when it comes to company decisions, so don’t be surprised if the information at hand here turns out to be a crock.
Just throwing that out there.
