My buddy Jeff sent me this story about a 17 Year old kid from Jersey who traded an iPhone for a Nissan 350Z. Apparently, he hacked the iPhone so you can use other carriers instead of being limited to only AT&T. The story basically says he spent all summer toying with the phone’s guts in order to make it multi-carrier capable.

After watching the video, I have to say that I really don’t like this kid. He acts all big and bad as though he found a cure for aids or something. When asked what his major is, he says “I’m thinking neuroscience - Hacking of the brain”. Poor kid. Once he realizes the workload involved with that major I am confident he’ll change to something that mixes well with alcohol.

So he spent 500 hours over the summer picking apart a phone? HA. Too much nerd, even for me.

Then you have some schmuck that trades a $25k+ Nissan 350z for the $400 hacked phone. Are you kidding me?

I might just hate the car guy more than the iPhone kid.

It’s a crazy world we live in.
