Here’s a view of the PCB. There’s a mini-USB connector for upgrade, and a male 30-pin connector (extrem right) to connect to your iPhone/iPod Touch for jailbreak/tethered boot.
Size is 60×30mm, and I had no choice but to add a 9v battery for power since the 3.3v from the dock isn’t available under iBoot.
Concerning the project, I don’t know yet if source will be released. Who blamed George Hotz or dev-team ? I should have a think about this.
I should receive the first batch for mid-february. Stay tuned !

Oh man! I’m gonna have to bust out the soldering iron and relive grade 10 electronics… that’s a loooong time ago.

Wow - cool post. Useful for the experimenters out there.
I know there are going to be many iPhoners who are going to really enjoy this post !

Congrats to you and everyone who were crazy enough to come up and work on an idea for a DIY iDongle!!!

Brilliant!
Congratulations to all who participated in this project! A project is well and good.
I’m definitely geeky & DIY, but my understanding of electronics is incomplete at best, so I have extra admiration. Again, well done.

Well, being a newbie , a iPhone fan, a DIY aficionado and an arduino geek, this post is simply the “summa” of all my passions.
Wow!

Fantastic! I had given up on this project long ago. I’m going to have to dig in and see if I can make a go of this. Even if I come up short I feel like we all owe a huge thanks to those who poured so much time and effort into developing this for the community.

A few years ago I would have jumped on this, but these days DIY electronics isn’t something I have the time for.
So I will admire from afar the fortitude it took to complete this project.
Congrats!

Great work, it’s wonderful project !
February 5th, 2010 at 5:52 pm
Hey, I’m interested… have soldering skills, limited programming ability, and live near the Canada/US border, so if there are people in Canada interested I can import in bulk.
So, assuming we’re talking the $50 neighbourhood, sign me us for 3 or so.
February 5th, 2010 at 8:50 pm
I am interested, thank you for you efforts!
February 6th, 2010 at 7:52 am
I’d love to play around with a kit. I guess you can ship to the UK and take payments using Paypal? Just thinking ahead!
February 6th, 2010 at 12:06 pm
I’m ready to buy when they’re ready to fly.
February 6th, 2010 at 3:53 pm
I would like to get a set, add me to the list of people interested in a diy kit.
February 6th, 2010 at 8:14 pm
I’m very interested too. Count me in!
February 7th, 2010 at 1:54 am
Definitely interested in that. Let me know what I can do to help.
February 7th, 2010 at 10:30 am
how many units would need to be sold (or pre-sold) for you guys to set up manufacturing/assembly so people who are DIY-tarded can get the units without frustration?
February 7th, 2010 at 3:55 pm
I’ll buy some of that if its available.
February 7th, 2010 at 8:11 pm
Wow. You guys are rockin’. That’s awesome.
What can I do to help?
February 8th, 2010 at 11:56 am
i dabble with electronics and know what you mean regarding many things not being as hard as they initially seem. this is another one that seems too hard for me. i would love it if you buy this stuff from electronic store !?!?
February 8th, 2010 at 3:56 pm
Totally agree with the hobby/accomplishment idea. This looks like fun.
February 8th, 2010 at 5:01 pm
When will one be available for beta testing?
February 8th, 2010 at 11:06 pm
Wow, this looks very promising. I didn’t even hear about the iPhone project before.
This projects seems like very fun
Great stuff!!

Hello, nice site nah =)
February 9th, 2010 at 8:12 am
How much does this cost ?
I am very curious to hear any feedback about what price range in which anybody has been able to build this project. I find it very, very interesting.
February 9th, 2010 at 11:58 am
Nice project man. I’m very excited to try this one.
February 9th, 2010 at 3:58 pm
Nice work! I want to build one or two of these myself…
