1. Some kind of hardware error, so "bricked" state is probably not related to Pwnage after all. It did work initially, right?
2. A hoax and/or a bad joke. Maybe to deter people from jailbreaking.

Most likely scenario is that you haven't successfully put it in DFU mode or something. I know you claim you have, I'm just not convinced it is possible to actually "brick" your iPhone. There's always a way to fix it, as your mac genius friend says.
I sure as hell hope so.

Uninstall Itunes
Delete all itunes related folders/files on your computer (and i mean all of them)
Reinstall itunes
enter dfu mode
and restore.

or try another computer like someone else said
I've tried three different computers.
