Actually he is right. The latest 1.1.1 fimware release PERMANENTLY

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.


Where have you read it was permanent? According to the article Apple warned
of it, but no one reported a totally dead phone ... at least not in that
