Cydia is pretty easy to install, but involves a fair bit of stuffing around, particularly if you’re not techy. Additionally, some of the plugins for Safari/Email cost around $2.00, and the ones I downloaded and paid for didn’t work. You can read how this can be done over here.

Just to illustrate: As one of the Apple oldies (SE 4/20MB) I waited for the 3GS hoping that the product had matured. Clearly, the iPhone is a nice music/slideshow/video player with added phone functionallity but quite useless for mobile business use. Here Apple failed shamefully and adds to its long history of believing that they know best of how we should use their products. And unfortunately, their sales success might even confirm their belief. Harsch words, but unfortunatelly true: On a trip, I received an excel file as an attachment which needed my urgent input whereafter I needed to send it to someone else. Firstly, I thought I could transfer that attachment to my MacBook Pro (wrong assumption). Thethering was unfortunatley also not available from the network provider. So the file was somewhere in my iphone, and I was completely taken by surprise and disbelieve that Apple does not allow neither to save the attachment in an accessible location, nor gives me access to the file system nor has any decent offerning in the itunes store. To solve that, I had to revert to my old Sony Ericsson P1 where I could do all the things I wanted. My current conclusion if your advise does not help: I will give the iphone to my son to enjoy music and I will buy a decent phone capable of business use. PS: If jailbroken, is there a way to access the caller list to account/invoice for the time spend on the phone? Dear Simon,
