David P. pointed me to this app for your iPhone. I'm gonna try it out, hopefully tonight!
Use at your own risk – worked fine for me, but who knows if Apple/AT&T go psycho and nuke your phone for it eventually…

iBrickr is the app to let you upload free ringtones, install custom apps, etc. The wiki I linked is one of the central iphone hacker resources for stuff like custom apps and other stuff for the iphone.

“The sciences do not try to explain, they hardly even try to interpret, they mainly make models. By a model is meant a mathematical construct which with the addition of certain verbal interpretations describes observed phenomena. The justification of such a model construct is solely and precisely that it is expected to work.” John Von Neumann

I've been running homebrew apps on my iPhone for a long time (I used AppTapp Installer for mac, which does the same thing as iBrickr). It's pretty fun, but there hasn't been anything tremendously useful. Yet.
Also, it seems that there's not much you can do to really "brick" an iPhone that a full restore from iTunes won't cure. That might change with the new 1.1.1 update that's coming, so if you jailbreak, be careful about installing the 1.1.1 update until the dev community knows what the deal is.
Have fun! :-)
Any pinhead who is stupid enough to buy first generation gadgetry deserves what he gets. Nonsense....
Unfortunately, I never actually did get around to using iBrickr, a new update came out for the phone. I think i've decided to not go down this path, just hassle factors and practical concerns. I'm a bit lazy and would rather just get reliable updates, etc. to the phone.
