what are you guys who are JB'ed thinking of it? is it worth it?
the only time i ever JB my iphone was right when i got my 3G, i found it slowed down and the only things i really used were the visual customizations, is there enough there that would keep me interested if i JB again?
also to refresh my memory, if you are JB, then update through itunes, does it just delete your JB and retain all your stuff through the new firmware?

For jailbreaking, think of all the things you wish apple had on this phone, even the simplest thing. With jailbreaking most of the things you thought of are now possible.
My must-have-jailbreak-app is SBSettings. You swipe the top status bar and this menu drops down where you can toggle things on and off such as bluetooth, wifi, 3g, etc.
A good to download especially for Skype users who want to use their bluetooh headsets is BluetoothMono. It sends all audio output and input to your headset which means you can now talk on Skype with your headset.

I jailbreak to put a theme in and for sbsettings. Free apps is ok too but I don't use many of them but that's the main reason many people jailbreak

^ As mentioned above, they will be gone.
Seriously, why JB for some free apps? Is the $0.99 to $2.99 for most apps too much to spend? It's not like you're loading up Photoshop or some other expensive software for free.
What I like best about the App Store is that I can buy an app once and use it on all 4 of my iPhones (mine, my wife's and both kids). 4 users for one price. How cheap is that?

They said long ago that there is no point of wasting their time on a version that is only temporary and it's only change from 4.0.1 is fixing the exploit.
They jumped directly to 4.1 which should be out tomorrow or soon. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Anyone notice that when you switch to video mode, it zooms in a tad automatically? And if you double tap the screen it'll zoom back out but have black bars above and below.
This was quite misleading for me when I was recording a super sf4 match of mine off the tv. I had it perfectly lined up so the edge of the video meets the edge of the TV. But when I viewed the recording, it was actually wider than I thought.
