| My opinion in this matter is somewhat conflicting. On the one hand I agree with you 100% that we are all responsible for our own actions....if you solder on your main-board for instance, you better be ready to accept a bad result. The same thing applies to connecting any of the I-Mod kits. However, this particular hacking community is composed of many persons who are beginners in computers, hacking, hardware and electronics. And I know many of the posts here make it sound so easy, many of the posts skip right over difficult areas, assuming perhaps everyone reading anything here, is an expert in the field. I never make that assumption when I post anything....maybe it makes my posts sound like I'm only talking to beginners....in fact I am. I am in reality talking to a mix of experts, and beginners. And I try to make what I say understandable by everyone. In this matter I think at the very least, some sort of directions should have come with the kit....some dos and don'ts. Its obvious now that some really beginners are buying these kits....and they do need some direction. I hope everyone who reads this topic, beginners particularly, understand it's not as easy as it sounds...this I-Opener hack. For God sakes, if anyone has a problem, a question about any of the hardware part of the hack, ask it before you do something that could distroy your I-Opener. That's what this BBS is all about. | |
