I personally don't even have a 4S yet, and won't until someone in my company needs a new phone so that I can get it and hand down my iPhone 4 to them.

I'm about to buy a 4S, surprisingly the resale is a lot lower than I'd expected, I can get them locally from $400-$450 for mint, so I'll probably get one and wait for an unlock or something.

The 4S jailbreak/unlock should be out VERY soon. Musclenerd has been talking about how close they are since they dumped the baseband, they just need to get a good, stable A5 jailbreak and stabilize the baseband exploit, I wouldn't be surprised to see an untethered jailbreak/unlock in less than a month.

Also, as far as jailbreaking, there are some cool things you can do that for me are essential:


1) access your phone's full file system from a phone file manager or your computer.

2) fast tweaks by just sliding the top bar, gives you a slide-down of every tweak on the phone (iOS5 stock still lacks this)

3) more notification center tweaks and widgets

4) Video Wallpapers

5) Gravity Board (youtube it, it's pretty awesome)

6) UI tweaks like adding an HTC animated clock to the home screen, a calendar widget, facebook widget, rss feed widget (on the springboard)

7) rotate the springboard to landscape, and 5 icons on the bottom instead of four

console game emulators playable by wii remote or PS3 remote

and there's much more theming and tweaking available.
