Jailbreak Matrix Makes Navigating iPhone Underworld Easy

If you love your iPhone but hate Apple's often draconian and seemingly arbitrary restrictions on what apps you can install, then you've likely at least thought about the prospect of jailbreaking. Yet, knowing whether or not your device is even jailbreakable, much less picking the proper tool and finding the right firmware to download, is about as difficult to comprehend as string theory. Someone finally took pity on us poor iPhoneites and put together the iPhone Jailbreak Matrix guide.

The handy color-coded grid breaks down your device's jailbreakability (yes, that is a word, starting today) and unlockability by operating system, and provides the appropriate software and directions you need. The Jailbreak Matrix leaves no stone unturned, so take a break from 'StarCraft II,' hit the source link and dive into the wonderful world of Cydia. [From: Jailbreak Matrix, Via: Lifehacker]
