Well that's embarrassing! First generation iPhone owners are now more secure if they jailbreak their phones (and apply this patch).

3.x vulnerable also?

What? I was under the impression that only iOS 4.x was vulnerable, and that my 3.1.2 3G iPhone was not affected...

iOS

Sounds like an open-source platform with all the independent patches going around.

If you think it's bad Apple isn't supporting a three year old device, go look at Android, they stop updating after about a year!

Sorry, but the "Well, Apple's better than Google" isn't a defense. It's just a lame excuse. That's like saying "Well, sure, HP's support is dismal, but it's better than what Dell offers!"

Also note that it isn't just the three year-old devices that aren't being supported. It's the previous version of the OS.

There are a lot of people who do not want to deal with updating to v4.0 just because Apple says "It's new and improved, come join the fun!". Esp. since Apple offers no way to go back in case v4.0 causes issues for you (say some software doesn't work, or it just is buggy on your iPhone, or you think it is slower). So it isn't the case where you can go "Oh, let me try, and if I don't like it, I'll just go back." It's a case of "Do I really want to risk any problems with a device that is working perfectly fine for me by installing a new OS? Especially one that offers little benefit to me?"

h***, just look at all the 3G owners screwed over by the performance issues with iOS 4.0.

BTW, Apple pretends to have the update of older versions of the OS, saying their update supports v2.0 through v4.0.1. Of course, their 'update' is to go to v4.0.2.
