Does it break any existing feature? Does it impact performance or usability in anyway?

I like the IDEA of jaikbreaking, but I don't really need any of the hacks that jailbreaking allows at the moment. If jailbreaking has any downside, I'll just wait until I just MUST have that screensaver hack, or new font or whatever
But if not, heck, I'd rather just do it now and be ready for whenever I need it!

Thanks,

For the jailbreak itself, I'd say it's pretty safe, because all it does is to install a ssh key file. This key file makes further hacks possible by making the verification of *.bin (for updating) file pass.
