I used ziphone to jailbreak my phone (no unlocking), but I haven't been impressed by the apps that are out there, so I am just going to wait for the real deal in June. I did a Restore in iTunes and set the phone up as new rather than restoring a backup. The phone activated and everything seems to be working. Is this enough to get it back to the default?

thanks,
kman

how do you do a restore? How do you take a back up and then restore to that backup? I have been thinking of jailbreaking to see the apps available...but would want to un jailbreak in june.
some people are like slinkys: they don't do much, but are fun to push down stairs.

Plus it into the computer and choose restore in iTunes and it relocks and un-jailbreaks it.
