A few 3rd party apps don't work--specifically weDict and iFlix. I think either some apps or some install scripts need to be updated. I was able to "chmod +x" a fix to iFlix, but am less sure how weDict is broken. I also found out that I ran out of space on my / partition, which caused lots of things to silently fail. I had to use the symlink hack (from /private/var/mobile/Applications to /Widgets) and then manually moved some apps in order to make space. http://www.tuaw.com/2007/10/29/iphone-hacks-running-out-of-application-space-on-your-iphone-or/ I started with the "leaked" jailbreak but couldn't get it to work. This is with the official team version, following the iPhone Atlas instructions (with the Mac Rumors Guide tweak for lockdownd at the end to fix the lack of cellular.) I upgraded to the official 1.1.3 so that the baseband gets upgraded (absolutely required for Google location), then downgraded to 1.1.1, jailbroke it, upgraded to jailbroken 1.1.2, then to the jailbroken 1.1.3. The whole thing was almost more work than it's worth. When the official SDK and official apps arrive, I'll have to re-evaluate if my needs are met with a stock 1.1.3 and official apps.

Are you using the official team version of the jailbreak, or the leaked version? SO the google location stuff works? because I heard of entrenched difficulties.
