Yes, it is. Mac Life (A magazine about all Apple products) actually encourages you to jailbreak it due to a lot more consistency.

Pros:
Themes for your iPhone/iPod
Apps that were not released in the appstore due to denial.
Mobile Terminal, this was one major reason I got it.
More Customizations, Such as wallpaper, themes, basically you can turn your iPhone/iPod into anything
If it gets messed up, such as bricked, you can just restore it and take it in, Apple won't notice a thing.

Cons:
It increases the risk of bricking by 15%. (Estimated guess due to unlikeliness.)
Apple voids the warranty IF you bring it in WHILE jailbroken.
