'Other' Data on iPhone

[Casio]

What exactly is it, I have around 200mb of it.

Mines not jailbroken but it was before but since I have done a full restore but set up as New iPhone

It'll be data like from web browsing, YouTube videos, contacts, messages etc if you did a complete wipe to get rid of the jailbreak.

It's normal.

I presume there are variants of push services on iOS systematically in existence for executing software updates, calling home to nuke applications and everything.

"Other" applies to things like contacts, text messages, settings, podcasts, notes, mail, cached web content etc.

It doesn't matter if you restored it, some Jailbroken data that wasn't deleted while it was jailbroken can stay on it even after a restore. I've got 350MB that lingers from the previous jailbreak. You'll have to jailbreak it then use iPhone Explorer or similar on the PC and delete the jailbreak files by hand and/or delete packages on Cydia.
