I actually don’t think that apple has a legal leg to stand on. There is no way a court would uphold this decision.

Especially with the 3G system of making people sign two year contracts before getting the phone (or paying a huge sum for an unlocked phone). You buy it. it is yours.

What they could say is that they won’t SUPPORT jailbroken phones. That would be hard to argue with.

some people are actually saying yes!! wow.
I can’t see why it should be illegal – i guess apple may be going down on cracked apps – they could try to buddy up with jailbreakers to stop it but continue jailbreaking? just an idea.

Order, order in the court!! I definitely think it should be legal to JB your iphone, releasing it’s full potential is a positive learning curve for dev., users, artists etc. I think apple is complaining coz they won’t have control over everything. I also think coz of it’s great new technology we as users are somewhat like guinea pigs coz we are testing these apps and helping developers improve performance. I rest my case jailbreak YES!

Okay I agree that jailbreak should be legal. As for the sim unlocking I feel that Apple may be right to change that.
