O.K. This is not my usual repertoire but I detested retyping this every time someone would ask me for instructions. If you have/want an iPhone but don't like AT&T's service plan. Do the following. Or if you want to add a wallpaper to you iPhone which Apple doesn't permit oddly enough, also, follow these instructions.
If you don't care, I don't blame you. If you have an iPhone and were afraid to do it before
*Disclaimer. I am in no way suggesting that you do this. If you choose for reasons of your own to do this you are on your own. I know it works.
First of all, update your iPhone to 3.0 using iTunes. Whatever you do though, do NOT update to 3.1.
Download whichever file applies to your phone.
iPhone 3Gs 3.0
iPhone 3G 3.0
iPhone 2G 3.0

Run redsn0w, point to the ipsw file you located and follow the instructions carefully. Just to prepare you, you will have only a few seconds to do the following.
1. Hold the power button.
2. Without letting go of the power, press the home button and hold.
3. Without letting go of the home button release the power button and wait.
If it doesn't work no worries, try again.
Once it is done, run Cydia or Icy and add custom repository repo666.ultrasn0w.com.
Then search for ultrasn0w.
After you install it reboot. Note: If you are on T-Mobile be sure to disable 3G. Sorry, there doesn't appear to be any solution for that.
If you install both Cydia and Icy and for some reason can't install any app. Try re-jailbreaking but don't select Icy. It will still be there and should work once you boot up again.
100% of the credit goes to the iPhone Dev Team. I just put it simply and into one location.

Dosnt apply but Hello! I am embarassed to admit this but so what...I saw my first I-phone the other day at work. I had no clue these existed and I still have no clue as to what they are or do...but I did learn they are quite pricey. I wont be getting one anytime soon...
No reason to be embarrassed, you have no control over what people around you own.
At first my wife felt the same way. She didn't feel like she needed one. Now I don't think she could live without it. :) It comes in so handy for us in the life we lead. We are often in the streets and it has saved us so much time. Where to eat, directions, traffic warnings, weather, entertainment. It's all there and so handy.
I'm glad it has increased people's awareness of electronics and the advantage of portable internet devices. They will only grow in popularity after this. Sure they cost a bit of money but they are only a tiny bit more than the cell phone charges we were already paying.
We are definitely putting them through their paces in our family. :)
