The software updates are free, and are installed via iTunes. The whole process took around 45 minutes when I didmine.
I think the iphone is great - I am sat here at victoria park, southport, preparing for the national and replying onoople with mine. There are things it doesn't do without jail breaking that other phones do, but the only people who point those out don't have an iPhone but usually want one!!!!

You dont have to jail break them now, with 3.0 you get an option to use your iphone as a modem

I'm looking at a 3G / 3Gs for Vodafone. So I'll have to jail break it from what I understand.
Use a Palm Treo Pro at the mo, mainly to connect to MS Exchange How good is the Exchange connectivity with the iPhone?

I gave my iphone to one of our IT guys when I started working here, within 2 mins I was getting mail from our server using Exchange ActiveSync, been working perfectly ever since which is about a year ago now :-)

Apparently you can still jailbreak the iPhone, but it has nothing to do with using it as a modem/Internet connection for your laptop, it is more to do with enabling video recording ant camera zooms. However, I think there are now apps that enable both those things anyway. I don't know for sure as I don't video stuff on the iPhone and the photos it takes are perfectly good enough for what I want.

The video off the phone is crap to be honest, from what i've seen on my mates Jailbroken phone. Best thing in my opinion is that it allows you to make skype calls over the 3G, which seeing as i have family in america is a huge bonus. But i'd still wait for the warranty to run out before you do it!
