There are many people out there who own an iPhone. I am proud to say that I am one of them. I use my iPhone now more than any cell device I have owned. Eventually, I decided that I wanted more features. I started looking online for ways of getting more features on it, and I stumbled upon some information on the iPhone Dev Team, and the Jailbreak method. This was back when the iPhone was at version 1.0.2. Now, the iphone is at version 1.1.4, and I am still on the scene waiting for the jailbreak method to come out after every update. I know that after Apple releases the new developer SDK, jailbreaking will be less needed, but even Apple has to admit that the early jailbreakers and developers were pioneers of the iPhone industry.
If you are an iPhone owner, and have not jailbroken your device at any time, then you should really do some research in to this, because many of these hackers and developers will now be making the applications you can buy in iTunes in the near future. I also think that Apple should also recognize the accomplishments and abilities of Erica from the unofficial apple webblog (TUAW), Nate True, Zibri, and STE for bringing the device farther than the developers at Apple. I also think that Nullriver should be given credit for the installer, and I hope to see it surface in the iTunes store for people to download, so that they can install applications while on the go.
Why does this mean so much? It means as much as it does, because these applications make the iPhone into the most powerful device to be on the market. You could make an application to carry out the functions of a regular computer, but it would be in your pocket, playing music, and allows you to place phone calls. Even Palm and Microsoft have these functions on their mobile devices, but they do not have the memory to support it, and they do not have the power of OS X to support it. The iPhone and the iPod Touch are truly innovative devices, and people should realize this and support the community that is usually overlooked.
Long Live iPhone jailbreaking!
