"Apple strongly cautions against installing any software that hacks  
the iPhone OS. It is also important to note that unauthorized  
modification of the iPhone OS is a violation of the iPhone end-user  
license agreement and because of this, Apple may deny service for an  
iPhone or iPod touch that has installed any unauthorized software.  "

...while I can sort of understand and perhaps agree with the first  
part of this paragraph, the second sentence is a doozie --- even if  
you have a proggie that does nothing more than display a pic of your  
favorite cartoon character, if Apple "doesn't like it" or deems it  
"unauthorized" you are not able to use it on YOUR device, even if you  
never use it on a network or it never hacks the OS.    More draconian  
talk from Apple, and reason enough for me to continue avoiding the  
iPhone.  I don't trust the device, and I don't trust Apple.

Anyone know if the same provisions apply on the iPod touch?
