iPhone, iPod Touch 1.1.1 Firmwares Jailbroken

The Jailbreak exploits a vulnerability in Safari's TIFF library to execute the necessary code when the specially crafted image is loaded. Access can then be permanently sustained by modifying the fstab file with iPhuc"

But they're not under any obligation to prevent third party applications. That's just greed. They want to eventually sell only licensed third party apps.
