By the way it's really easy:

1. Turn iPhone off
2. Hold down Home key and plug in iPhone cable
3. Wait for iTunes to tell you it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode
4. Quit iTunes
5. Open a terminal
6. CD to the directory where you extracted ZiPhone
7. Type:

# ./ziphone -j

8. If you get a bus error, you need to downgrade your MobileDevice.framework to the one in the ZiPhone archive then try again
9. Wait about a minute
10. Done :-D

This works with *all* iPhone firmware versions. My iPhone was 1.1.2 OTB, and I actually restored it to 1.1.3 last night, and this Jailbreak worked first time with no hassle, unlike when I Jailbroke 1.1.2!

If you pass the -u parameter then it unlocks it. If you pass -a then it activates it. Simply passing the -j parameter just jailbreaks it and puts Installer.app on for you. It will not affect the baseband or unlock it.

Remember - my iPhone is locked to O2 the same as yours. I have not unlocked it, nor have I had any need to modify the baseband. I can confirm everything still works 100% after this process.

Also, the only changes this makes are in firmware. If it gets b0rked or you change your mind and want to go back, just do a restore in iTunes and it will go back to factory - i.e. no Jailbreak any more.

Yes, everything will be exactly as it was before the Jailbreak. You won't lose anything.

Don't be too nervous - the first time is always the hardest. It will be over before you know it. In fact you'll probably wish it wasn't over so quickly, and you might even want to do it again. You'll definitely wonder why you waited so long. Hang on, what are we talking about? :-P

Once your iPhone is jailb0rked, you will have a new application on your Home screen called Installer. Just run that (best to be connected to WiFi) and you will be presented with a nice little package manager which will download, install, update and uninstall software for you. I would recommend:

BSD Subsystem (required for some other apps)
AFPd 0.3 (Apple Filesharing Protocol server - your iPhone will be browseable through the Finder :-D )
OpenSSH (SSH server - this will let you share your Edge connection with your laptop)
Taskbar Notifier (very nice app which puts an icon on the taskbar where your battery icon is when you have SMS, email, voicemail etc. Much easier to see if you have any messages this way!)

No iPlayer doesn't necessarily mean no Flash player.
