    Aye, when you upgrade, you remove the jb.
    You will have to redo the jb.

    ^^^jail broke iphones v2.0+ is way slower than v1.1.4, i've been testing it, it is slow as hell and it always freeze up also... :tear:
    if you really want to jail break your iphone, i would recommend you to wait for it to be more stable for v2.1

    for jailbreaking v2.1, i'm not sure, but on my iphone cydia, v2.1 is jailbroken, but not for Window OS yet, only for MAC OS is jailbroken, so no software from Winpwn yet as far as i know.
