Jailbroken!

So! I took the plunge and jailbroke my iPhone 3GS last night. I have to admit that I was nervous about jailbreaking, even though I had jailbroken both my old iPhones (2G & 3G). Regardless, the process was extremely easy and went quickly and smoothly.

I was most concerned about the speed of the device after it was jailbroken. All around, I have to say, I’m very pleasantly surprised! Its still fast. Winterboard (the iPhone theming app for jailbroken iPhones) now has a setting to only load on the springboard, so it won’t slow down any apps. This makes a huge difference and the phone feels just as snappy as ever.

So far this is my most positive experience with a jailbroken phone. I just love it.

iPhone 3GS & iPhone 3.0 Firmware

So… I got the new 3GS! A 32GB White 3GS, to be exact.

And… well, I love it. I’ve had both previous models of iphones (a white 16 GB 3G and a 8GB 2G), and now, with the added speed, space, and new firmware, it finally feels like the phone it was meant to be.

A few notes on the phone and firmware (all mixed together)…
