how the f**k can you root a blackberry anyway???
I was able to do it on android, but not on blackberry....

Ahhh.. post the podcast already kevin. I was tempted to watching it during my embeded systems class this morning.

I'm going to get the drawing app. You are having some fun with it.

Here is my question:

Could these guys break into my PW protected Playbook? If not, then how is it that this is a problem for consumers?

I agree with you El! And I am kinda disappointed how many Blackberry users on here think that this is insignificant. Unless I am missing something- this could be very bad for RIM and us users.
I know I am not a tech geek- but I would appreciate someone explaining to me why I should be happy that someone accomplised to do this..Kevin??? As the leader here- I was surprised to see your reaction to this. I see this as a bad thing for RIM and yet you seem excited and encouraged by it. Please explain this to me.

yea seriously what app are you using to make these this looks fun

lol that pic. lol! but root or not sign me up for a bbx..

The Dingleberry 3000.....I just can't stop laughing every time I think about it.

So, if the private keys are plainly stored in the file system, then a live connection to a paired BB can decrypt Bridge traffic. Of course, you are going to notice that immediately in your BB phone (the pairing).

It'd be fun to catch who has the keys near you. We could even play 'catch the jailbreaker' with our PlayBooks! =)

"Mr Dingle, The Strong!"

LOL. Awesomeness :) Thought the PB looks like it's at the gynecologist :)

Poor BlackBerry is about to get violated. No bueno.

It will only works if you choose to use it.

No worries. Your memory of this event will be erased with os2. Hopefully..

Guys!!!!! Listen!!!! The PlayBook was rooted, yes, but it is still entirely secure. Unlike Androids and iPhones, the QNX Neutrino (http://www.qnx.com/products/neutrino-rtos/index.html) basically protects the Kernel and it's still encrypted while giving access.

Trust me, RIM knows what they are doing.

Kevin should turn the Crackberry keys over to someone that actually cares about RIM

KEVIN, i missed the podcast! I'm in the office, but im free now. When will you post the replay???? Thanks!

...love the caricature...
I can see this as a 'blackhat' marketing strategy encouraged and perhaps sanctioned by RIM. I mean think of the number of sales from regular consumers and 'homebrewers' that they may get from the thought that the PlayBook has been rooted and has "all of this unlocked potential".
Then FULL OS 2.0 will come through with an 80÷ code change that will make this unusable and likely un-repeatable.

Seems like a win win for RIM.

Love the cartoon with the cover and legs up for the "examination" but where are the stirrips?

For a company and device no one seems to 'care about' someone spent some time getting under the covers with it.

Uncovered 'holes' are never bad to know about.

Secure = sphincter intact?
Insecure = spasmic rectal prolapse? XD

can you get free apps with this 'jailbreak' you think?

They should call it IBerryU =)

Thanks for the comments people! Glad you like the BBDoodles. :)

Official BBDoodler!

Being able to root the playbook, and eventually loading android instead, might just save this great device. The hardware of the playbook for the price it's going for can't be beat. The software development SUCKS!

Kevin, can you explain what this mean to RIM? I don't think that they sold much Playbook to companies. So I think that it is gonna boost the sale. But the bbx phone I am kind of worried about its future.

I know I missed the live video but where is the posted recap video. This video editing is taking longer than the official os2. Im just joking but really this video must have some crazy cgi effects.

what is that hanging out at the end of the operating table. It kind of looks like a turd dont you think.... or something else thats a little limp
