You basically have the ability to everything any other phone can do plus some. Plus you can turn your iPhone into a wifi hotspot.

Mind you though once you jail break it, run apps other then apple you a leaving your self open to what ever virus ect these apps can have. That is the great thing about IOS it is created, maintained by apple and only them, which is why it runs so freaking smooth and trouble free. Even though I am content in not breaking my phone, friends of mine have done it, it does open up alot.

I have Jailbroken my past iphones and no longer do, its was cool for awhile but as they have added tweaks to IOS I have found less of a need. I had my act up a couple times when jailbroken and I was halfway around the world and it turned into a PITA as I use my phone WIFI when I am away. I dont do it anymore.

Talked to my local cell carrier today...


I will be trying out an iPhone 5 once they get in.


I figure I can't hate to much if I have never had an iPhone...

Bring on the **** talk.. I know it's coming.

What **** talking, this was never a whats better thread, just who is getting one. Bottom line 5 is the best out of the box ready to go. If others don't agree stay the muth hell out of here.

Hey John, your getting the 5, right? Are you able to keep unlimited data? I heard in a video that you have to give up unlimited data to be able to face time over a cellular network. Instead of needing wifi. Maybe it's just a rumor. But I don't feel like giving up unlimited data.
