JailbreakMe creator Comex joins Apple as an intern - Engadget

Nice of him to hand over the reins to others in the JB community to continue his work.
Maybe this will go the other way, and he can convince  to open up the IOS system a bit more so people don't have to JB the device.

I only see this as good news.

Cheers

Or as the article say's
Now that Comex has crossed over to the white side (or the black side, depending on how you look at things), there’s no doubt that his relationship with the jailbreaking world will change.

Too many...
I doubt Apple would "open" up the iPhone. I don't know, but last time I checked, sales are still amazing. Maybe if sales significantly dropped, while other "open" phones increased, then we could see some change.
