just jailbreak it. if you need help just google some youtube videos and there are people who will show you step by step how to do it...its easy.

ive had mine jailbroke for a while. i love it. i get to have all sorts of cool backgrounds and access to some really cool third party apps like "backgrounder". which allows you to keep programs running even if you close it...aka, you can surf the web while listening to pandora.. jailbreaking really lets you personalize your iphone so it doesnt look exactly like every other 20 million iphones..

oh and btw, i have had zero problems since jailbreaking. i just cant install new updates.. oh darn!
