Access to T-Mobile GSM Network

The biggest problem with the iPhone is not the "death grip" that blocks your mobile signal -- it's AT&T. The latest jailbreak gives users access to T-Mobile's GSM network, which works overseas and may be more robust in your area.

Cool Jailbroken iPhone Apps

Apple's legit App Store has many cool offerings, but jailbroken iPhones have a wide array of banned creative and quirky apps. Access to Cydia -- the hub of "illegitimate" apps -- is a huge motivation for jailbreaking your iPhone. There are many lists of great iPhone apps to check out -- here are a few standouts:

• MyWi: Turns phones into mobile hotspots
• Intelliscreen: Puts e-mail and calendars on the home screen
• MxTube: Download YouTube videos onto your phone for offline viewing
• My3G: Allows for previously Wi-Fi-only processes to run on 3G, like HD YouTube videos
• PDANet: Share Internet connection

Fast and Easy

One of the best parts about jailbreaking is how quick and easy it is to open up your iPhone. No need to download software onto your desktop or hunt for updates that dodge jailbreak-killing iTunes updates -- by using the Web browser, the whole process takes less than a few minutes over a Wi-Fi connection.

Fully Reversible

If you're scared of the consequences of jailbreaking your iPhone -- or simply don't like the experience -- a jailbreak and unlock is fully reversible. If you ever decide that you want to remove your jailbreak, just connect your device to your computer, sync, and then press Restore in iTunes.

FaceTime Video Chat over 3G

FaceTime video chat is a nifty new feature of the iPhone 4, but it only works over a Wi-Fi network, which may be difficult to find in many situations. Jailbreaking the iPhone 4 allows for FaceTime video chat over a 3G connection.
