Anyone got one of these? I have one on the way, and I'm wondering if anyone can make comments on problems and or helpful hints. Thanks!

Okay, check out Gizmodo's easy guide to jailbreak your phone.

Granted you are using a Mac to jailbreak your phone.

Here is the link: http://gizmodo.com/5675757/the-ultim...breaking-guide

It takes all but five minutes give or take.

Hope this helps!

Caution: Apple, Inc. is going to be releasing an iOS update from 4.1 to 4.2 imminently. The jailbreak application is only for 4.1 or less.

The program "limera1n" will work for both Apple and Windows plateforms. Here is the program website to start the process (http://limera1n.com). Be sure to use the step by step instructions posted in the Gizmodo website (attached to my previous post).

Good luck and have fun!

I am jailbroken and loving it. It gives you a lot more freedom in customizing your iPhone. I have a minimal lock screen with a sleek looking clock, 5 app wide home screen and 5 app dock, and SB settings which allows me to turn off bluetooth, wifi, etc easily from the home screen. And it allows you use Facetime over 3G instead of just wifi. I also figured out how to make my own live animated wallpapers but they freeze up and just animation sometimes so I'm back to a normal wallpaper. Well, sort of normal. Its a pan wallpaper like an Android phone, the wallpaper scrolls with each page.

Check out Macrumors.com, they have lots of info and tips.

Oh, and if you don't have unlimited 3G, there is a way to get on an unlimited plan if you can use more than 2GB a month like me. Using Netflix over 3G eats up data really quickly, Pandora just eats it up over time.

Hey that's really cool! How is battery life with that live wallpaper? I'm still rocking my RAZR from 2006 and I desperately need a new phone. I also need to change carriers from T-Mobile cause I don't get any service where I live now. I wanna get an iPhone 4 but I hear Verizon is gonna be getting the phones too, so I'm just gonna have to wait it out...
