NEW ORLEANS -
Millions of iPhone users are experiencing new freedom with their smart phones.
That's because you can now "jailbreak" and unlock your cell phone without violating copyright law.
The U.S. Government this week announced new rules that make it officially legal for iphone users to "jailbreak" their device and run unauthorized third-party applications.
It also gives iPhone users the freedom to use their cell phones on any compatible network.
But there are some risks associated with "jailbreaking." Unlocking your smart phone may be grounds to have your warranty terminated.
"Jailbreaking" or unlocking your phone may also violate your service agreement. You could wind up paying a $200 out-of-warranty repair fee should anything go wrong with your iPhone.
