When AppTapp Installer for the iPhone came out a couple of months ago, I installed it on my iPhone and began running 3rd party applications. I especially liked the ebook reader, Frotz (a text adventure player), the voice recorder, and Summerboard (to scroll through application icons on the iPhone).
Then Apple announced the 1.1.1 update for the iPhone and issued stern warnings that they would not be responsible for any problems caused by updating a modified phone. I un-jailbreaked my phone before updating it.
Shortly after upgrading, I began to miss my jailbreaked iPhone. I read about ways to re-jailbreak it, but they involved downgrading the iPhone's firmware, and it seemed risky.
But a couple of days ago, the iPhone hacking community came up with a very easy way to jailbreak a 1.1.1 iPhone. All you have to do is visit jailbreakme.com on your iPhone and click the AppSnapp install button. I did it, and it worked without a hitch.
According to the site, AppSnapp will not brick your iPhone: "No, worst case you will have to restore in iTunes."
