gotta admit: the video isnt that clear about it, but here's how i guess it works.
if iphones running the OS X kernel and OS X is based on UNIX, then you basically have a unix terminal on your phone. its awesome if you know what you can do with that, but i myself am only starting to understand Linux right now...Its nothing a standard consumer would need, i guess, but great for any professional
another thing, I installed terminal on the iphone as well and terminal tells everyone that the iphone is in fact running OS X, I was a little skeptical about the iphone running such a sophisticated OS but it actually does and terminal proves it, what it also means is that you can install windows on the iphone because OS X supports windows, the iphone is a hackers delight
Umm.. its an ARM processor, you can't install windows on it. And its a pretty scaled down version of OSX at that, basically the kernel, its own UIKit, and foundation... even all the unix binaries are just ARM binaries that hackers compiled for it.... again you will never run windows on this thing lo.
I did this to my phone and I am going to post up a vid on how to exactly do it because all these noobs show their iphones getting modded but dont show how they actually did it, so I'm going to do the iphone community a fav..
I love how the Terminal appears on the home screen. I suppose it can access the internet connection so you can do pretty much everything you can do on a Mac, from ping to SSH. This has potential. The other menu icons are gone tho :(
Yea the video could of been much better, but what's important is that you guys got 3rd party apps on the iPhone. Hopefully this will push Apple to release a real SDK and unleash the full power of the iPhone.
Sorry about the poor video, I did this in like 2 minutes with a macbook webcam. Really didn't expect it to get that far lol, but hope people enjoy the app and learn from it to produce more cool apps!
nOOB! lol

upgrade to the latest version of BSD Subsystem and MobileTerminal. Or try using Term-vt100 instead.

You say that as if what he's done is a bad thing. As if he's maliciously exploited security problems.
You say that like a n00b.
Unlocking the filesystem, developing a working tool chain and ARM/Mach-O crosscompiler, and writing custom applications is a GOOD thing.

No sound, but I can read your lips. Here's what you're saying:
"My iPhone, ha-ha-ha.
Fuuuu---weee! F*ckin' A!
Fuuu-weeee! L-O-Lz!
Aight!"

Neat!
If you can get this terminal to telnet, and then create a cut and paste friendly simple .txt app (that syncs) you pretty much have it all.
Of course some kind of macros like Keyboard Maestro would be sweet, so you wouldn't have to retype commands repeatedly.
A great start.
