The July 7th edition of the Wall Street Journal features an article on Ari Weinstein, a 15 year old from Philadelphia, who happens to be one of the key players responsible for Jailbreaking the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Working in conjunction with the “iPhone Dev. Team” Ari and his team have been successfully Jailbreaking all of Apple’s devices.
These teams are the guys responsible for bringing you all those nifty tools which allow you to Jailbreak your iPhone and iPod touch.
Ari, who says he began computing at around age 2 has been working on different variations of the team’s Jailbreaking program for over two years.
He has his own lawyer too, who’s working for him pro bono just in case.

I have always had a passion for gear and gadgets. It all started for me with the release of the very first Palm Pilot. I've always had an interest in handheld electronics. From handheld PDAs, to cell phones, Mp3 players, watches and other products, I'm the first person my friends, family and colleagues call when they need advice on tech. I have roots in the online tech. forum community. I served as the Administrator to Howard Forums.com and as a Moderator at both Treo Central.com and Blackberry Forums.net. Under the screen name “lgreenberg” I've amassed 50,000+ postings. I also manage my own YouTube channel under the user name larrygreenberg. I'm always eager to help.
