Pwnage is based on an exploit found in the lower levels of the
iPhone/iTouch bootloader. We can now "pwn" Apple by patching the device
to allow unsigned code. This opens the door to unlimited possibilities.
Once your iPhone/iTouch has been "pwned", you can do things like
installing custom made .ipsw files - straight from iTunes!
