iPhone Dev-Team Posts Unlock Teaser [Updated!]

The iPhone Dev-Team has made a cryptic teaser post in advance of the iPhone 3G unlock expected today.

The post reads,
01110110
01110100
01100001
01100010
01100101
01110010
00100000
00110110
00110001
00110000
00110110
00110000
00110001
00110111
00110100
00100000

Converted to Ascii the message reads "vtaber 61060174". vtaber converted to ROT13 reads, "ignore".


It is possible that this means to ignore post 61060174 on the iPhone Dev-Team's blog. The post entitled, "The man from DelMonte - He say Yes!" is a warning not to update to iPhone firmware 2.2 using iTunes. Perhaps the iPhone Dev-Team has figured out a way to unlock the new baseband that came with 2.2 as well.

Update- It is now confirmed, the iPhone Dev has unlocked the 2.2 Baseband (2.28.00)

WHEN ? WHEN ? WHEN? I have been waiting to update to 2.2 fw bc i didn't want to mess with my baseband. Does this mean it's soon? Waiting patiently. THANKS Not a criticism but a fun whimsical post is all. I can wait as long as i need. Thanks again Dev team.

So, the Dev Team won't take donations, won't charge you, and won't release software that will harm your phone; they give you a great thing and want nothing from you in return, but you'll begrudge them a little bit of fun with posts on their blog...? Sad.
