Jailbreaking is a process that allows iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch users to run any code on their devices, as opposed to only that code authorized by Apple. Once jailbroken, iPhone users are able to download many applications previously unavailable through the App Store via unofficial installers such as Cydia, as well as illegally pirated apps. A jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch is still able to use and update apps downloaded and purchased from Apple’s official App Store.

Kevin, When someone Jailbroke his IPhone, He is able to install all applications with the help of their favorite software installer. Complete process has been given in linked site.
I have jailbroken my iPhone and I don’t regret it, the many Cydia apps are brilliant especially the UI tweaks like “infiniboard” (scroll apps vertically as well as horizontally) and “Winterboard” (User themes).
You can also remove some of the many restrictions that come wit the iPhone such as wifi only apps or network limits. And best of all if I ever need a repair I can just restore my phone and the apple customer services will never know
