Totally Agree...
Nomar, you're totally correct in your thoughts. I originally jailbroke to 1.1.2. with absolutely NO problems. I kept staring at iTunes, looking at 1.1.4. With all the reading that I'd done, I decided to 'bite the bullet'. I restored my 'broken' phone to 1.1.4 Now I had a 'brick'. I closed iTunes...fired up ZiPhone and one click and 2 minutes later....everything works.
In fact, the phone appears to work better than it did on 1.1.2. The reception seems to be better on several 'sim' cards. The battery life seems to be better. I don't know why, but remarkably so.
I don't care about taking this back to Apple and bringing it back to original condition. I took the risk to do this. All I wanted was a phone that would be usable all over the world (except for parts of Asia) and it does. I've got a load of cute new ringtones on it.
So, if anyone is breaking/unlocking their phone do it with this in mind: You are taking a risk. Apple and its wireless operators don't want anyone unlocking/jailbreaking. If you want to sleep at night with the thought of having a pristine phone, don't do the procedure. If you want to have the ability to use it over a large international platform...go for it! I don't care if the 'bootloader' is changed....I can't see it..all I know is that I've got a good phone that does all and more that I've needed.
