iPhone Jailbreaking Is Now Legal!

Well, OK it was never really illegal, but there has been legislation passed that states that users of cell phones and start phones cannot be legally be restricted to the software they install after buying the hardware(the phone).  So anybody who has been interested in getting their iPhone unlocked so they can install all the software you want, rather it is on the iTunes store or the Cydia or Rock store.  This will be the turning point for many software and technology companies thought process and will surely change the future strategy of many software makers.

Mobile software companies have long been working towards creating single standard, it doesn't look like this will actually happen anywhere in the near future. The chances are more likely that you will see the iTunes store coming to android phones, before their is a singular store that all phones use. This recent legislation may still be protested, but it will definitely give the industry an opportunity for much needed fresh start.
