I thought the whole point of cydia was that it was free? oh well… hope Installer will be like it used to be.

That is true. But I’m thinking that they are less reasons to jailbreak everyday. It used to be cool to have a hacked iPod touch with Super Mario Bros on the GBA simulator, but now with all the apps in the Appstore available to everyone, it just isn’t as cool as it used to be. There are now less things specific for jailbreak. But it doesn’t mean I won’t do it, just not as often.

Needless to say I still think jailbreaking is worthwhile for theming purposes. I like being able to theme MY iPhone the way I want NOT the way APPLE wants. For that very reason alone is worth the jailbreak. As for everything else, well, if anyone feels it’s not worth it then we all have our opinions. Nothing wrong with that. ;)

The jailbreaking community is becoming more and more useless (in terms of apps) as everything is going to the appstore and only apps like Snapture is available through jailbreak. With the introduction of the Cydia Store, nothing worth having is going to be free any more. I miss the days of 1.1.4 Sigh.
