Remote Controlled iPhone

I couldn't find this anywhere, so I apologize if it's already been posted. This came out in July:

Is it still a vulnerability issue, or has Apple fixed this? My roommate was talking about how he would never get an iPhone because they are so each to hack into and control. I assume this is what he was referring to. I only see him for about 10 minutes a month (GOD I love having a roommate that lives at his girlfriend's), so I didn't get to ask him.

Interesting. This type of stuff is bound to happen though.

fixed in 1.1.2.

It may very well be easy to hack, but it's pretty unlikely to get a remote hack, as with most other mobile phones which have bluetooth always on and open.
