Rather interesting situation brewing south of the boarder.
Basically, people who un-locked their phone using a software unlocker, and update their iPhone software to the latest version are experiencing "Bricking".
ie: thier phone does not function at all, or will only work with the original AT&T SIM card.
Kind of an anti-trust thing with the only carrier being AT&T.

So do think there is case?

I find it kind of ironic that Jobs, who got into the computer business as a home-brew "hacker", is now doing what ever he can to stop this new bread of "hackers".
