Hot on the tail of the recent Pwnage 2.0 tool for the iPhone, the iPhone Dev Team has already updated their app to version 2.0.1. This version brings a couple of large fixes, but it isn’t necessary if the 2.0 version already worked with your iPhone. There are three different sites where you can download this version of the software, as the initial release caused several of the iPhone Dev Team’s servers to crash.

The list of updates includes:

• It auto-finds the bl39 and bl46 files better, if they’re on your computer.
• It creates the ~/Library/iTunes/Device Support/ folder if not present, which should help with some 1600 errors people have been having.
• Many people have reported the PwnageTool not starting up at all (the icon never stops bouncing). This issue should be resolved now.
• The Sparkle AppCast URL is fixed in this version, so automatic updates should work for future releases.

Hopefully, Apple will follow by example and upgrade their software, too, as they have some buggy behaviors. If you have successfully jailbroken/unlocked the iPhone 2.0 software, tell us about your experience in the comments. It sure is amazing how efficiently and quickly these guys can crack this stuff.
