The last time we heard from Geohot, aka George Hotz, he had just started a job at Facebook. Hotz's claim to fame was being one of the first people to jailbreak the original iPhone, plus more recently being sued by Sony (they settled the case out of court).

There's no question Geohot is talented–could we possibly see him back in the iOS hacking scene anytime soon?
