    iPhone iOS 4.1 Bug allows you to Bypass Lockscreen and Access the Phone App

    This is not good for people who own iPhones, but it is fantastic news for people who don’t (and want to mess with those who do). Feel free to bypass the lockscreen to make a call or send an MMS using your friends iPhone (and their plan) without so much as a few quick button presses — it’s almost magical.

    As you can imagine, Steve Jobs at this moment is suiting up (turtle-neck and the whole 9 yards) to kick some ass down in the programming offices at Apple HQ for letting this bug slip past development. In the end, this isn’t the worst that could happen… *knocks on wood*.
