Thanks again to you all!
Clarification: There are no end-user-friendly ways of jailbreaking. Prying open the case and running the jailbreak scripts via the serial port is only mildly less inconvenient to the average user than prying out the flash memory and attaching it to your computer as a filesystem. (And that isn't saying much.)

But sure, if you feel comfortable jailbreaking via the serial port, it is possible. A couple people have posted basic howtos in this subforum... somewhere...
