This is great news for iPhone users like me who does not have usage for highly priced data pack that is required by Apple. FCC has published it's latest guidelines called exemptions to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act which allows iPhone users to legally unlock their iPhone to use with different carriers. The exemption reads as below:
"Computer programs, in the form of firmware or software, that enable used wireless telephone handsets to connect to a wireless telecommunications network, when circumvention is initiated by the owner of the copy of the computer program solely in order to connect to a wireless telecommunications network and access to the network is authorized by the operator of the network."
The ruling also made Alternative iPhone App store legal to be used. Please note that Apple can still void the warranty if you choose to jailbreak.
