Windows Phone 7 to be jailbroken soon

Published

It hasn’t been long since Windows Phone 7 was launched, in fact it only reached our shores this Monday, but the hacking community is not one to rest. As of today, it appears that someone has found a way to run “native unmanaged code”, in other words- unauthorized apps and firmware, on a WP7 phone. Or in simple terms- WP7 phones will be able to run apps that aren’t downloaded from the Marketplace. And all these unauthorized apps that work on a jailbroken WP7 phone won’t be on the Marketplace, they will probably be distributed through some sort of app store like Cydia for the iPhone. Sounds like things are getting interesting on the WP7 front. I wonder what Microsoft will do in response to the breach?
