If you are wanting to explore mobile technology further I suggest you buy an iPhone 4S, keep it at 5.1.1, jailbreak it - configure it how you want, and use it for 30 days. If you don't think it is worth the few hundred, return it and get your money back.
Different people have different mobile phone usage and needs. It's nonsense to say "buy an iPhone 4S" to everybody, as well as "buy a Nokia N9" to everybody.

About this topic : I can enumerate some features that a Nokia Series 40 Asha 303 has that an iPhone (4S/5) doesn't. Useful features, used everyday by some users.

So, depending on the user needs and preferences, maybe a Nokia Asha 303, iPhone 5, Nokia N9, Nokia N900, etc, is better.

My case : I really use Easy Debian, gcc/g++, "ssh -X" on my N900 & N9. I can develop, compile, package and send a software to a repository (extras-devel) just using a N900. For my needs, any iPhone is not a viable solution, with or without jailbreak. For some users, iPhone is better. Simple as that.

Let us live in peace and not judge others and mandate what others to do.
