I took the plunge and I am now the proud owner of a Jailbroken iPhone 3G! This effectively makes it a 3GS. To be honest, it's like having a new phone. You can read many
reasons to go for it here:

For example, I now have video recording - technically only available
on the 3GS! Wasn't about to upgrade just for that. I am chuffed to
bits with the quality. Little bit jerky but comparable to my Panasonic
digital camera. Here's a little sample:

If you (or anyone you know) are wondering whether or not to take the
plunge, just do it! It's so easy and - touch wood- nearly two days on,
I haven't encountered any problems. However, if you have upgraded to
the latest firmware which I think is 3.1.2, you WON'T be able to
jailbreak yet.
Full, simple instructions are here:

If there's anything you aren't sure about. please ask. Feel free to
forward this message on to mates who have iPhones etc. (I should be on commission for the Dev team!)
