Just when you thought it was all making sense..

As we reported yesterday, hackers have cracked the Apple iPhone activation process. Its firmware was also leaked over the weekend, revealing the Apple iPhone wide open, laid bare.

Four very interesting files were found within in the Apple iPhone system, says Hackintosh . They are:

Rumours are that Apple are chosing carrier partners based on their market share in a particular country. So O2 get the UK, T-Mobile have Germany, which just leaves Vodafone. Ireland anyone? Also there’s another rumour doing the rounds that France Telecom/Orange are going to get the gig in France.
