Most people with a jailbroken iPhone will end up with a "factory-fresh" iPhone after the 1.1.1 firmware update. Your mileage may vary, and isolated incidents of bricking have occurred, but most people are just going to have a 3rd party-free, AT&T-only iPhone in their pocket when the day is through. As for when we'll have full use of the iPhone again is unclear, but iPhone Dev Team's Erica Sadun says "don't expect a jailbreak anytime soon," which doesn't seem promising.





I hope this isn't true.

thats not good...i dont know if i want an ipod touch if i cant have the 3rd party apps the iphone HAD...

You do want the iPod touch. Despite it not having third party apps yet, it is still unbelievably rad.

Not buying something because you can't hack into it is simply asanine.

i already have an mp3 player that can play vids and music i want a ipod touch because the kind of hacks for a touch screen device would rock
