What's Jailbreak?
Jailbreak or iOS Jailbreak is a process that enables Apple's products working on iOS such as iPad, iPod Touch, iPhone and Apple TELEVISION to gain full usage of all of its features thus removing limitations imposed by Apple. With Jailbroken Apple system, user can use, acquire and deploy applications, subjects, and extensions that are not identified by Apple and are not on the iTunes retailer and/or what we called "cracked" purposes.
Nearly a year after the initial Jailbreak, an italian hacker named Zibri el Fontu discovered an important key to brought him to be the first to Jailbreak the iPhone using his system called ZiPhone. Zibri readily distributed his requirements and uses leading the hacker team called iPhone Dev Team to produce the Jailbreaking instrument PwnageTool to Jailbreak iPhone 2G and 3G and the 1ST generation iPod contact. As early as 2009, Apple release the iOS 3.0 which remained unbroken before discharge of iPhone Dev Team's PwnageTool 3.0 and redsnow 0.7.2 after 3 weeks. The iOS 3.0 was rapidly followed up by iOS 3.1 which was then Jailbroken by iPhone Dev Team publishing a new edition of PwnageTool, all Apple devices were Jailbroken except iPod Touch. Nevertheless the Jailbreaking genius George Hotz (a.k.a. Geohot) release his first application Blackra1n to "tether" Jailbreak all Apple units.

After the release of iPad 3G, Comex's Spirit was released Jailbreaking all Apple units running on 3.1-3.2, untethered. Not until early 2010, Jailbreaking becomes legitimate under the DMCA in Usa and several other places like Europe although Apple maintain it to void the warranty. So far Jailbreaking is still developing as new Apple devices or firwares are released.
