• "Sure, it's nice to say you unlocked a device that's not meant to be unlocked, but it just made so much more sense to me last year when the iPhone didn't have native apps."
  "I'm sure others would say that the reason they want to unlock the iPhone is so they can put so-called "banned" apps on their device that Apple has decided to boot from its App Store."
  
  im sorry, but you dont seem to know what the difference between unlocking and jailbreaking is. unlocking means to free the device from it carrier lock, and jailbreaking is what you're referring to when you mention "running banned apps". and yes, jailbreaking the device is definitely worth it. if you're familiar with the appstore apps then you know that the apps can only run in what is reffered to as a "sandbox" environment. meaning that when the app is running, it only has control inside it own little box and has no power in the device outside that box. meaning that you cant have apps running in the background or change anything in the OS. jailbroken apps on tjhe other hand are way more powerful than regular apps, and let you do anything you want, even record video for example. it really great. you should at least look into it.
