So I'm going to ebay my 2g 8gb phone, it has 1.1.4 and is unlocked and jailbroken. Just looking for opinions, sell as it is with 1.1.4, or upgrade to 2.1 and unlock/jailbreak and then sell?

[Poseidon79]

I would upgrade it to 2.1 and then rejailbreak/unlock so who ever buys it has the option for the App Store.

[sziklassy]

I would just list it and say you are willing to leave at 1.1.4 or upgrade to 2.1... let the buyer decide.

[Poseidon79]

The average buyer on ebay is not an iphone expert/unlocker and doesn't care to be one. They will most likely not even know the benfits/drawbacks to being on a different firmware. You as an educated seller should make the decision as if you were the buyer... what firmware would benefit you the most?

Although since you're still on the archaic 1.1.4 firmware I don't know if you can answer that yet, haha.

You gotta represent the 2.1

[isquarei]

I really appreciate all the responses, and fast too lol. I might as well upgrade and re do it, Poseidon79 made a great point about the buyer most likely not knowing the benefits etc. Thanks

^^He's right....however if you can say that the software is "current" or "updated" then it sounds much better.

Off topic, I want to get a 16 gb white, because everyone I know has black. However I hate the fact the front still has the black pieces You like yours cpjr?

[cpjr]

^^I was set on getting the Black one....then when I got to the Apple store and was able to actually see them.....I LOVE the white one

[Poseidon79]

I love the white one also! Doesn't show finger prints and the white Agent 18 case is an awesome addition.

^^My only variant to that....is my white switcheasy case
