For power users, this can make the device (most commonly referred to with regards to the various Apple produced iDevices) more "usable." For average users, it is not necessarily worth the effort to do so unless you have a friend or family member who can help guide you through the process. When I lived overseas, we would have a number of friends bring their iPhones from the States and fail to get them unlocked...they would commonly turn to the jailbreak option in order to buy sim cards overseas to use...what is ironic is if you buy an iPhone in most overseas locations the device is already unlocked...then the decision is if you really need the software offered by Cydia or not.[/QUOTE]
