    What firmware has it got? 3.1.2 or less and you're in business.

    Dunno yet...its due tomorrow...is that for jailbreaking? Obviusly that gives free apps and whatnot...but if its over this firmware it still must be a good phone to have. Can later firmwares be jailbroken?

    you'll probably be waiting until 4.0 full release for the new jailbreak tbh, unless you're at 3.1.2 as he says.

    You could get on the dev program if you like for the 4.0 beta.
