The iPhonedev team showed some progress on their unlock of the iPhone 3G. The iPhone 3G has been a particularly hard phone to unlock with Apple having taken steps to boost up its security. The iPhone-dev team has been working on it since the release of the phone. Their announcement came in the form of a short blog post on their website. They have successfully modified the baseband code which is a “very useful ability”.

The full unlock will probably see AT&T’s business drop significantly as users now have the option of using other carriers. AT&T has been highly criticized for its poor coverage and high prices. Unlocking was a huge problem on the original iPhone.
