Technically any form of jail breaking your iPhone is considered by Apple to be a "Vulnerability." All it is, is retaliation against the recent ruling making Jail Breaking Illegal. Your average Joe Schmoe is in essence the vulnerability. The average user doesn't want to watch "how to" videos or read instructions on Jail Breaking, they just want to go to a website and let someone else do it for them. So some crafty programmer, finds this "Opportunity" and ceases it in order to make the process seamless to the end user while having the ability to enjoy the spoils of his conquest, personal information and ad revenue all courtesy of the silly uneducated user. If most users were more internet saavy and had some situational awareness, they would see these dangers and do their research before Jail Breaking, thus making the "vulnerability" a non-issue. Lastly, as soon as people start using Face Time for pr0n or video sexting services, Apple will come out with a statement saying there is a security vulnerability with the camera that allows for pornographic content to be broadcasted from your phone. You may accidently expose yourself to the person on the other end of the video conference...Oh No MR BILL! Mark my words, a staff of "Censors" will be hired and your video chat will have a 7 second delay so they can edit your video on the fly. FML..ooops wrong Forum...
A good O'Scope for $2,000, is about as ridiculous as a good woman from a Dive Bar. 2 G's will put you on the low end of Fluke 199 O'Scope. I suggest if you're going to be cheap, at least try to get something like an Infinium with a good calibration program, within the frequency range of the equipment you will be working on.
