Re: Jailbreaking
Mark, I got confused and sent this message to a parallel thread. It applies to this one as well so I'll repeat it: I think this one has been flogged enough.

Re: Jailbreaking Everything
I remember a magazine article from my youth (1960's) describing how someone had taken a Fiat 600 and put a Porsche engine in it (I forget if it was a 912 or 911 engine - either one would be quite radical). Now THAT's a jailbreak I can appreciate! I guess it resonated with me because I had a Fiat 600 at the time.

Re: Jailbreaking
Thanks Lynn. That was a good read. I was intending to jailbreak my 3G iPhone in order to tether it, but there is a little blurb there which says, "Computer programs, in the form of firmware or software, that enable used wireless telephone handsets to connect to a wireless telecommunications network, when circumvention is initiated by the owner of the copy of the computer program solely in order to connect to a wireless telecommunications network and access to the network is authorized by the operator of the network." I read that to mean that AT&T can still say that tethering is forbidden and I am still legally obligated to comply.

Re: Jailbreaking
You can tell the whole world now! :-) But I wonder then if Apple is going to be all that motivated to manufacture high quality computers after people can buy (or download) Mac OS X and run it on a dirt cheap PC? Sometimes we can shoot ourselves in the foot in the name of fair play. Please oh God let us not go back to the days of the Performa when Apple became convinced by all the pundits that it had to compete in the business place to survive! And where are those pundits today? Probably writing for a hollywood rag.
