Can somebody please explain to an old fart like me how you jailbreak the iPhone and once done, can you still use iTunes?

Can I still buy apps from the iTunes store and where do I buy apps that iTunes don't like etc?

A brief explanation would be great as I really have no idea WTF I'm doing!

Many thanks, old fart with new technology smile

I'm also interested in knowing the answers to some of the OP's questions.

What problems will this cause the phone?
Can you remove the jailbreak??

Mike
The phone.seems identical it's jail broken.

As I understand it, to remove the jailbreak you plug it into iTunes and restore.
