I was just reading this link, http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=4415, with the details of the non Dev Team 3GS JB provided by GeoHot. Do you think releasing this now is going to give Apple the upper hand and expose the loophole they used, thus giving them a way to prevent people who have yet to buy a 3GS from ever being able to JB it? After all, not wanting to hand it over to Apple on a silver platter was the exact reason why the Dev Team hasn't yet released it even though they have had it for a while now.

Did GeoHot use the same method the Dev Team did?
