Many of you have read about the kid from New Jersey, where else?, who "cracked" the iphone code this week. Read this article in Newsweek and thought his future plans were perfect for a 17 year old... hey... there are some days they don't sound bad to me... if my waist line could handle it.

from today's Newsweek
"Hotz, the whiz-kid behind the hardware hack, isn't concerned about his legal standing. He's not offering his services up for sale and the steps required to unlock an iPhone are sufficiently complicated. ("Who's going to use this?" he asks. "Very few people.") In fact, the only people who have called him so far are journalists, "a venture capitalist and a guy who works at Qualcomm offering me a summer internship," he says. But Hotz, who ships off to New York for his freshman year at the Rochester Institute of Technology this very afternoon, has other ideas. "I want to intern at Google next summer if I can. I've got a friend there and he's, like, 'Dude, they have a cafeteria 24/7. You can go in there and eat whatever you want. You can go to sleep, hack for a couple of hours and go eat some more'." Who said kids today don't dream big?"
