I had a suspicion that Apple would issue a firmware upgrade laced with
a virus

And you were wrong.

OK.

Actually he is right. The latest 1.1.1 fimware release PERMANENTLY disables iPhones that were modded to work on other than the ATT network. Even if the software is restored to an earlier the phone will not work because Apple has permanently disabled the ability to rewrite firmware. The only fix is to replace actual compnents within the phone which Apple refuses to do. Therefore the phone can only be thrown in the garbage can.

Doesn't matter to the Mactard Apple apologists. Apple can do no wrong. Mactardation is a religon that doesn't allow the questioning of their diety Steve Jobs. They are fucking idiots.
