The latest iPhone firmware, version 1.1.1 is out today. Just a note to those of you with unlocked phones, be forewarned, it re-locks your phone and disables third party apps.

So as the first iPhone owners update their phones to firmware 1.1.1, we're getting reports in that not only do third-party applications no longer work, but a post-update reactivation requires a genuine AT&T SIM. In other words, it looks like Apple may have just disabled thousands of unlocked phones around the world.

Guess, they took a false step! If iPhone's a mini-computer one should be able to install 3rd party apps without restrictions Sad
Has anyone here suffered a little?
