Unlocked Apple iPhoneFull unlocked Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) iPhone? Check. Works on any network? Check. Software unlock? Che…wait, no it’s only a hardware unlock solution. For now, at least.

The good folks at iPhone JTAG have announced that they have fully unlocked the iPhone with their custom hardware solution. The circuit-based workaround requires that you open up the guts of your precious iPhone and do some soldering. the team is exploring a software unlocking solution as we speak, so keep your hopes up!

We’re expecting the team – gray, iProof, geohot, dinopio, lazyc0der, and an anonymous contributor – to release the unlocking instructions a week from today. So, keep an eye out, and stay tuned. If you’ve got the cajones to pry open that iPhone and put your soldering skills to the test, you’ll be rewarded with a fully unlocked iPhone.

In the meantime, check out the video of the unlocked iPhone.
