The iPad 3G has reportedly been hacked by the guys over at iPhoneIslam to enable full Phone and SMS funtionality. This hack requires no additional hardware as the iPad already has a 3G modem and you’ll perform every cellular operation that you would perform on an iPhone. Â The video of the hack in action after the break.
[box] A hack that will change the game. Can you imagine turning your iPad to a fully functional phone. With No Special Hardware all what you need is Jailbroken iPad 3G and your iPad 3G will do anything you expect from iPhone… Phone Calls, SMS, FaceTime by Phone Number… ETC[/box]
It is not yet confirmed if the video is fake or real but it is highly unlikely that this would be just a publicity stunt as iPhoneIslam has a good reputation in the jailbreaking commmunity and they’re the same guys who were behind FaceIt-3GS, a hack that enables FaceTime video calling on an iPhone 3GS. iPhoneIslam hasn’t given a released date but says PhoneItiPad will be available on the Cydia Store “very soon,†and before WWDC.
