Winpwn 2.5 was recently launched. Its still said to be in BETA stage which according to the Dev Team means “Use at your Own Risk” !
This latest iteration of Winpwn is fully Graphical with a very attractive User Interface !
Note : iPhone 3G still cannot be Software Unlocked ! If you want to Unlock iPhone 3G you will need to use a Hardware Tool like a RebelSIM.
Things you Need :
Many people who have the iPhone/iPod Touch are still not able to install the FREE Applications because they don’t have an iTunes account as iTunes Compulsorily needs a Credit Card to create one !

3. At the very bottom of the page, select My Store as “United States”. (Other Countries are not tested)
4. Click on any FREE Application to Download as Shown in the Pic above :
5. The Page related to that Application will open. Click on Get App and you’ll get a Box as shown below :
6. In the Dialog Box Click on Create New Account.
7. Click on Continue.
8. Accept the License Agreement by Ticking the Check Box and then Click on Continue.
9. Fill in your Email ID, Password, Secret Question and Birth Date and click Continue.
10. Now as you see in the Image Below. You have another Payment Option which says “None“. Check that !
11. Fill in your Details and click Continue. (if you’re wondering what to fill in for Address, you can fill up any valid PIN Code and Fone No. ex. City: New York, State: NY, Zip: 10012, Phone: 212 226-3127)
12. You’ll now be sent an Email. Check your EMail, Verify your Account.

How to install and Unlock 2.0/2.0.1 :
The iPhone surely lacks some basic features but 3rd Party Developers have made sure that those flaws and drawbacks are fixed using 3rd Party Applications. Earlier you needed to Jailbreak and use Installer.app to run these, but now with the App Store, Apple has officially opened up the iPhone.
One such application released recently is the NetShare Application ! This application allows you to use your EDGE/3G Data Network and route in a way which shares your iPhones Net connection to your PC via a Socks5 Proxy Server !
This Application is currently Paid and costs 10$ ! I personally don’t think its worth that much as I’ve been using this feature for free for over an year now via the following method by cre.ations.net !
Anyhow I’ll explain in Brief how to use this for your Windows based PC.
