Renowned hacker George Hotz aka Geohot has revealed that he recently bought a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, as he looks into the security and encryption of the handset. The X10 is likely to be used as ground work in preparation for a full-on assault on the Xperia Play, which he already has said is his next target.
Geohot is famous for jailbreaking the iPhone and hacking the PlayStation 3. Any help he can give in cracking Sony Ericsson’s locked down bootloader, will be warmly welcome by the Xperia developer community. See the video below where he talks about the X10 from around the 4 minute mark.
