Apple "Do Not Mod" warning posted at Apple Store

[JoeT]

Saw this tonight while at the Apple store. It wasn't there last time I visited. Modders beware?

i thought those have been there since the 1.1.1 update... when was the last time you went there?

[JoeT]

A week ago or so. This was being displayed right next to the iPhones on display and definitely was NOT there a week ago, or any other time I've been there since mid-Dec.

interesting. The store near me has had something like that up for quite a while now (pretty sure it's the same thing, but it was displayed in the store's front window). I think it was in reaction to all of the unlocked phones getting f'ed because of the 1.1.1 update, but that may be me jumping to conclusions.

This isn't really new, as Apple said as much back in September, right before 1.1.1 was released.

Also, this seems targeted at unlocks, not "mods" per se.
