The new mobile iphone has created all new opportunities and new streams of incomes for developers. One way is to make applications for the iphone and sell it on the app store so if you have the skills, you are in demand. this is really working well for many people.
But if you don’t want to make an application there are other ways to get money including the PWN2OWN competition sponsored by TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) team. All you have to do is to participate in the competition and exploit a vulnerability and get $10,000 for each vulnerability.
And it is not even necessarily an iphone there are other phones including fully patched BlackBerry, Android, Symbian and Windows Mobile phones in their default configurations all waiting for you to hack them. And don’t worry you aren’t doing anything illegal and you aren’t allowed to share the vulnerabilities with anyone.
Well even if you don’t know anything about mobile phones you can also win half the price i.e. $5,000 to find out a vulnerability in web browser and some are putting their money on Apple's Safari.
To get the rules go to the official website here.
