[HIB]iPhone Dev Team - No Jailbreak for 4.0.2

This morning, the master jailbreakers known as the iPhone Dev-Team had some troubling news for the JB community: They won’t be issuing a jailbreak for iOS 4.0.2 (or 3.2.2 for the iPad). The update proved that Apple has no problem with pushing out updates with the sole purpose of patching jailbreak exploits.To be fair, Apple had good reason to go on red alert and move swiftly to plug the (well-publicized) JailbreakMe.com vulnerability. Other hackers could’ve easily entered into this same back door; it’s just too easy to direct unsuspecting users to a website that automatically downloads awful, malicious code (via PDF) into a device. But considering the company is shipping new devices with the updated software already preloaded, there will now be scores of new users who won’t even be able to roll back to a previous jailbroken version.And so it’s the Dev-Team’s turn at the plate. And instead of swinging for the fences, it’s leaving the stadium — and taking the bat and ball with it. On the surface, it may seem like Cartman gathering his things and screaming, “Screw you, Kyle! I’m going home…” Then again, maybe not.
