try this:

when your phone is done jailbreaking.....
when itunes asks you to restore your phone from a previous sync, instead go to a new setup. everything thing is going to be deleted accept for the contacts from your SIM


im gonna try this, let u know if it still drains the battery faster and less laggy.

I just tried this method and the battery hasn't moved since yesterday, make sure u only restore the contacts, u can sync ur other stuff later

It seems that everyone and their brothers have so many damn problems when they jailbreak. I keep holding off on it, and I've decided I'm not going to even mess with it. I don't know why anyone would jailbreak and then claim you don't "own" your iphone until you jailbreak, but yet you still have so many problems with your phone. Is it worth it to have these ridiculous problems? Not to me. I don't have a hours a day to sit around and try to work on my phone because it malfunctions. I have too much to do so I guess in the end having the Apple firmware is just fine because the only problem I have experience on my 3G w/ 3.0 FW is that the battery drains faster, but my phone will last me all day so....

It is definitely worth it to jailbreak. The problems are very little amount of the people who jailbreak, and it usually has to do with user error and easily fixable.
But if you don't want to jailbreak, it's totally up to you. You don't know what you're missing out on though
