Hello World on iPhone - Image 1Remember the iPhone's "Hello" ad that was aired during the Oscars? Well, it's doing more than just a "Hello" now. The #iphone IRC channel just cracked into the system to bring users the first ever non-official iPhone application: a Hello World exploit.

As these hacks go, all it does is display the text "Hello World" on your screen and does nothing else. While the serial has been cracked into a few weeks ago, the happy family of #iphone has now released the actual binary of the Hello World app.

The source demo of the GUI app is available online and easily found if you're resourceful. And with that source code, who knows where the hacking can lead to. You can build onto the source with the tools created by the #iphone family - which are also available online, mind you.

You can't deny how impressive these guys are for having pulled off the feat. Only time will tell now how far their exploit can go.
