Default iPhone discussion and app recommendations

Should I jailbreak my iPhone?

I know that the iPhone dev team have released the pwnage tool for 2.2, and the most complete list of apps I have found it this slightly old one:
[2.0]Installer/Cydia, working 2.0 apps and repositories - Hackint0sh

Offline maps appeals, but are there any killer apps that I would require a jailbroken phone for?

Don't do it!
You did not attend iPhone101 by Steve?

If you do, however, please tell why and how....

How is well documented, I'm trying to establish the why from this thread.

I have this philosophy....

1. Do you have time?
2. Can you reverse it? Or can you junk it?
3. Is there a big difference?

I bought the PS2 precisely because I don't want to upgrade my PC every 3 months and don't want to hack or download PC games.
Therefore I am more inclined to still say "no, don't do it"....

Of course, you have whole winter to play with the jailbreaking process...
good luck!

I am dreaming of the Belkin Tunebase FM2.
Any one with experience on this one?
I have teh iPhone 3G, and so I am not sure if this package (from Manor) has the right adaptors for it.

Most people on www, says it is compatible and is one of the best Auto-Tuners/charger in the market right now.

91chf....or near 100chf.

FM solutions give crap sound quality.

Get yourself a Dension Icelink Dey is da sh!t.

I had one in my old car, it can control the iPod (including iPhone) from the cars head unit. Excellent sound quality and gives you a iPod holder too.
