The bootrom, as far as we know, is truly read-only — most likely a mask ROM. In the devices prior to iPod Touch 2G, the read-only nature of the bootrom benefits the jailbreak community. It means Apple can never *add* signature checking of the LLB by the bootrom in those devices. And it means they can never fix the DFU-mode hole exploited by our Pwnage process.
