Of all the stories I heard, Woz was way more interested in using them. When Jobs found it out it was illegal, he dropped selling them and distanced himself from the other phreakers he was hanging out with, too afraid of the legal ramifications of getting caught with this equipment.
Most of the books I've read basically paint Jobs as a goody-two-shoes type who cringed at the illegality of phreaking - while saying he probably was thinking ahead, knowing he already wanted to start his own company and didn't want stuff like this to come back and haunt him.
It was an interesting dichotomy to me.
