I don't think it can be undone. As to the firmware I'm unsure as I'm never bothered to study how it works, I just use ziphone.

Not sure about the why or the result, I simply know how to break them. The ziphone website has a lot of info though

Ya know, another thing I love about the iPhone is the call quality.  It's absolutely fantastic.  Damn I love this phone.

Tethering's gonna cost you $30 - there was an app for it but they pulled it....I got the app early though:-)

What apps you running Obes?  My favorites:

TwitterFon
Recorder
ToDo
AccFuel
Facebook
Google Mobile
Google Earth
Pandora
Around Me
The Weather Channel
My Weather Mobile (moving radar)

Not if I jailbreak it and only use it occasionally.

Once its jailbreaked u can do it as much as u want if you have an internet plan on the phone because they can't prove your tethering. I mean if you download shit constantly they can otherwise your fine

Someone want to explain tethering to me?  I'll list apps when I'm not posting from the phone.

Connecting your laptop to your cell phone and using the cell phone to get online.

I don't think I'd ever have a need for that.  And now that I have the iPhone, I could easily just use that.

It comes in handy sometimes. There may come a time when you have no wifi but you need internet on the laptop then and there for something the phone can't do or to email a file the phone can't get.

Would suck to have the cable and have never taken 5min to jailbreak the phone.

I do it often enough with my phone.  There are times when I need to use the laptop and I need an internet connection but there isn't any wifi available.

Obes - Knuck is right, get an invisishield from Zagg.  http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/index.php  He convinced me to get mine, and I owe him for it.

I put one on mine right away and I love it.   No scratches, no scuffs, my entire phone is clean as the day I got it...I'm also using a speck toughskin - just ordered my second because I broke mine (human error).  I love it.  The phone is definately bulkier, but it is a lot tougher...

Zagg kicks ass.  New material too.  Clearer.  I have had great luck with mine!

Use them on the Garmin units at work too.
