My iPhone is so above and beyond my last phone that I don't really care if it gets jail broken. But when it does, sign me up!

Do you really think that Apple would fix that flaw? It sells more phones because of the flaw... If it was harder to unlock it, less and less ppl would buy it. ;)

I think Apple would like to put a stop to it, since tried before with some DMCA business. Also, jailbreaking leads to unlocking, and we know for a fact that carriers hate that.

I agree with the above, Apple may sell more if the iPhone 3GS can be jailbroken/unlocked. And as far as the carrier hating unlocked phones, perhaps, but I think Apple could care less about them. Apple sells a device, not a service. Screw the carriers for not being smart enough to give customer what they want to pay for. This is free will.

Yes, carriers do hate the fact that phones can be unlocked... but Apple is selling the phone only, and not the service. So they benefit by selling an easily unlockable phone not only via contract to AT&T but also via all the phones that get sold to customers looking to unlock.

[citation][nom]saturn77[/nom]Um right. If you unlock your Iphone you can get free apps. Ya, I'm sure that's exactly what Apple wants.[/citation]
Apple sells enough apps to the majority of their customers who dont jailbreak their phones. It wouldnt be worth it for apple because 1) people that would jailbreak their phones are likely not the target audience for apps and 2)The costs associated with fixing the problem and coming up with a solution at the time the problem was discovered likely enormously out weigh the costs of a few jail broken Iphones and 3) when the phone is jailbroken apple no longer has to provide a warranty or support for it saving them money on that end

my 3g 3.0 is jailbroken and i can assure the "free" apps arent that great. There is a reason they arent for sale in the itunes store.

The cool things about jailbrk is the ability to mod the Iphone and Unlock the carrier (Ultrasnow). Also i like the emulators which i cant get running on 3.0 yet...
