I have an iPhone. Can someone explain to me why you would want "nightly builds" of your phone operating system (or any other software) if you are not a developer? I guess I don't understand why Cyanogen tried to turn into a company. I'm scared of updating my phone because I'm afraid of what will break next. As an example: for a long while using find in PDFs was broken in Safari.

Most people don't want to update nightly. What they want is to use the first build that fixes the bug that they particularly hate, or includes the new feature that they particularly want. Otherwise, they wait for Milestone releases.
