Gotta get my 2 cents in here. I agree that the phone is the property of the customer. That being said, Apple has a right to protect its investment and if that means developing firmware that disables phones that have been intentionally tampered with, I don't see that as anything but a shrewd business decision. If the people were clever enough (or dumb enough) to hack the phone in the first place, I'm sure they'll find a way to roll back the firmware too. In the end it's up to the hacker if they're going to update the software or not. They started playing hardball when they cracked the phone, but get all whiny when Apple plays back at them. IMO they totally had it coming... you mess with the bull, you get the horns.
