Apple vs jailbreakers

The only way Apple can fix the exploit that the iPhone Dev Team has been using to Jailbreak [1] iPhone’s and iPod Touch [2]’s is to fix their hardware [3], but it seems Apple has figured out a way to program iTunes 8 to detect and prevent the Pwnage exploit. The screenshot [4] below from iTunes 8 using a Pwned ipsw (with an unPwned device attached) is one example.
The Dev Team reacted promptly:
“The nice thing about iTunes decisions is that we can provide you with patches to counter them. We have one such patch already for Mac iTunes 8 for iPod touch. We’ll be working out the full suite of patches for all the combinations over the next week.”
Dev Team also published two interesting screenshots [5]:
