I've read about jailbreak of course, but cannot work out whether it will allow you to use any network. Can it do this or is it just to allow new applications to be installed?

My Other Car Is A Bus: Jailbreaking just allows you to put apps on your iPhone. However, with those apps, you can run one that will SIM unlock your phone.

Cassidy: I'm running Installer, Colloquy (IRC), Lights Off (game), Labyrinth (game), NES (Nintendo games), Customize (allows you to customize tons of things about the phone), SummerBoard (custom themes), Services (control EDGE, WiFi, and SSH without going to preferences), UIctl (component controller for phone, dangerous), Term-vt100 (Terminal), and Mobile Chat (IM).

There are also some hidden utilities that I'm running that allow me to run apps: Community Sources, BSD Subsystem, OpenSSH, and Erica's Utilities.

Oh, and in SummerBoard, I like the Leopard theme, but I've since swapped out the background for that with the background for OS X 10.5 Server.

For a SummerBoard theme, Blueprint, but I'm biased.   ; )

Looks like you'll have to download it off of DA and SSH it into your phone since I'm not seeing it in Installer.

Yeah, it has to be copied over manually. I had sent the Installer people an email when they first asked for theme submissions, but I never heard anything from them.

Do you know if there are any additional sources that can be added to Installer?

Jail break is essential! Even though Apple will now open the phone up for developers I bet you will be stuck to their way of doing things.

Jailbreak turns your phone into a proper osx computer, the tools I have installed (vnc, terminal, bsd etc) have already been life savers for my work in IT!
