Again, no arguments here. I think it's not a matter of one vs the other – they are all extremely valuable resources for the iPhone community.

However Geohot on most occasions is the first person to find the exploits, he was also the first person ever to jailbreak the original iphone.

Oh, I realized that and I agree with you totally. Hope he is going to continue to get closer to them, and collaborate with them in future.

Thanks for the add, you're right. The Dev Team truly has been the cornerstone of support for the jailbreak community. I guess what I was attempting to point out was how pleased I was that he was following in the footsteps of the Dev Team as being a "stand-up" hacker. LOL if there is such an oxymoronic type. Kind of that "by the people, for the people" mentality, which shows a maturity beyond his young years.

No argument with any of that, though I would add that the Dev Team probably deserve even bigger props – as they've consistently delivered the most tools, the most support, the strongest opposition to the rip-off / repackage merchants out there, and so on. They've been a huge jailbreak community resource – the biggest by some distance I'd say – for a long time.

Not only is he a hacking king and child prodigy, but he also has some integrity and principles. He actually took the time to write and release such a statement which I find commendable. With the iphone market growing as it is, there is a large number of people trying to enter into the world of jailbreaking with little or no knowledge about it. These people could easily fall prey to alot of the scammers out there. Also he is not getting paid for his work, and didn’t sell out for the cash. I think that really shows his passion about what he does.
