A Few Good Reasons Why You Should Jailbreak Your iPhone. - By: Lance Peters

If you have just bought your iPhone and are thrilled with the whole new world of applications it opens to you, you may be wondering why everyone seems to think you should jailbreak your iPhone. After all, what more could you possibly want?

Here are a few things that you might like to consider:

Firstly, remember ‘unlocking’ and ‘jailbreaking’ are two very different things. However, if you do decide to unlock your iPhone so that you can use another carrier, you will have to jailbreak it first.

Jailbreaking is a very popular step that many people take. There are estimated to be more than 10 million jailbroken devices already, and growing!

In your iPhone, everything that you bought it with still works just as well after it is jailbroken as before. To get it back to its factory defaults, you can just restore it in iTunes.

There are no risks to your device, so jailbreaking will have no effect on your warranty. It is also completely legal to do this.

To really personalise your own iPhone you can choose a variety of background themes. You can choose web content, video or you can have a rotating slide show of changing images of your choice.

You will very quickly realise what a nuisance it can be if you get an email or an sms while you are busy on another application, game or music. Who wants to close down their app so that they can read their message and reply to it? There are very useful little apps that you can load to allow you a ‘quick reply’ without interrupting what else you are doing and having to quit your game or music.

With these extra apps for improved sms, you can still send a normal sms, you can search through your contacts or through your sms, and then you can forward an sms or send an sms to multiple people at the same time. You can also use the filter to screen out any unwanted calls or sms.

A very useful application you can load gives you a GPS track of your iPhone if you lose it or it is stolen. You go online to the GPS location service provider and can absolutely pinpoint where your device is.

You will find a number of excellent music controllers and task bars that are very easy and convenient to use and even adjust the brightness of the screen.

While the iPhone is designed to multitask, not all of its apps are sensitive to multitasking. If you jailbreak, you can load apps that give you far more control over your multitasking and close off any app neatly and quickly compared to the rather slow and clumsy task switcher currently used by the standard iPhone.

Today iPhones are being used by many as little portable computers. You can store your info, music, etc, in folders. However these folders are somewhat limited. You can easily clutter up your filing system. If your iPhone is jailbroken, you can find apps that allow you to enhance your folder system by placing folders within folders and lessen the clutter.

Continuing with the mini computer theme, if you are a student, or perhaps attending a conference, you can load an app that will work with almost any of the blue tooth keyboards. What better way to unobtrusively take notes, in the minimum of space.

Don’t forget, the most important reason of all to jailbreak 3gs iPhone: You can now download unlimited games, ringtones, music, videos and movies. You are not restricted!
