"This iPhone will self-destruct in five seconds"
Hacking your iPhone can be a fun and profitable way to void your warranty. Apparently, it can also be a good way to set the curtains on fire...
As iPhone Atlas has it, a user was trying to open up his iPhone in order to unlock it pop in his own SIM card. Just as he was getting the case open, boom. iPhone flambe.
According to the chef: "we started to open the metal cover (after taking out the 3 screws) and PUFF, up it went in smoke, I think my collegue must have touched something."
Fake Steve Jobs has already claimed responsibility for the act, cautioning "Not going to tell you which units have the bomb in them. But I wouldn't go opening any of these babies up if I were you."
So if the AT&T legal mafia doesn't track you down, the exploding iPhones might.
Good luck, Jim.
