Another Apple Post

Apple is reportedly releasing yet another update for the iPhone. Version 1.1.2 will be released tomorrow with usual fixes and such, but will also include extra language support, presumably because of tomorrow's UK iPhone launch. The UK iPhones will come with the 1.1.2 software pre-installed, but those of you want to update should watch iTunes over the next coming days. My question is whether this update will do the same the last one did and turn hacked/jailbreak'ed iPhones into paperweights again.

UPDATE: The new update will put an end to your unlocked iPhone.

UPDATE2: As of approx. 9:40pm est, the iPhone firmware update has been rolled out and is available to all, even though iTunes apparently is not aware of it. The jailbreak hack will not work anymore but this new update has already been hacked!! Right now its 1:41am, it has not even been 4 hours and according Erica Sadun over at The Unofficial Apple Weblog a hacker by the name of "planetbeing" has already managed to hack the iPod Touch. So maybe by tomorrow morning, everyone can have their iPhones hacked again!!! 3rd party apps for everyone!
