jailbreaking isn't the same as unlocking though is it? they could sell it unlocked all day long but still lock it down to no 3rd party apps??
to be honest I did the whole freebie unlock/jailbreak thing via this very forum and it was such a non issue that I never paid much attenion to what jailbreaking actually meant.
I have to say if I didn't have the facility to just wander onto my install icon and drift through thousands of apps or if I didn't have mahjong or poof or summerboard or my own ringtones or wetool etc etc then the whole iphone experience would be much less wonderful for me.
This really is how it ought to be and yes the whole push email and syncing thing might be handy but they can shove it if it means I lose my freedoms.
Actually I'd be using it as my work phone if the signal was anywhere near good enough.. where my P1i pulls 1 or 2 bars and can handle calls fine and certainly long enough to get to the window (on company vodafone sim but in a bad area and our windows have some sort of coating that kills the signal, ironic for a mobile phone company) my iphone is way too flakey, if its in my pocket the signal (again vodafone for my personal line) is very patchy.
I said to a good mate today it does everything exceptionally well except being a mobile phone and that suits ME just fine
