Jailbreaking your iPhone, the joys

You can argue stability, blah blah blah. but I’ve never found the exisitng iPhone OS 100% stable either, so that’s a fairly spurious argument. It’s surely a matter of personal taste, but having been re-introduced to the possibilities a jailbroken iPhone possesses, I’m finding that it’s very tempting to make that leap on my main phone.

Overall I think the jailbreaking community is definitely on to something and seems to be really becoming mainstream. It was pretty cool to load up Cydia and see the store that was announced at 360|iDev in March. Saurik and crew have done an awesome job. They’re bringing a level of choice and control to the iPhone that Apple has taken away from us. As a consumer I can’t fault with that at all.
