There are sooo many apps available (copy/paste, view Flash videos, video recorder, themes up the wazoo, the South Park app that was not allowed in the App Store) that it is an advantage to do this.

I mean, i spent 200 bucks on that thing I'm not going to risk killing it. I'm perfectlly happy being shackled to the app store, i just wish they would release more apps. quite honestly I am scared to jailbreak my ipod touch.

The thing that worries me as an app developer is that someone will release a pirated copy of my app and allow people to use it without paying for the time spent and the years behind the framework. Not only that but since mine is server based, and does not contain ads, that same user is not paying their fair share of the expense to keep the service up and running. This could mean a loss of service for everyone in the long run. The system is there to keep the honest people honest, and to make it at least a little difficult or minimally bothersome for someone who is going to do it anyway. Not only that but the app store creates a central location for everyone to go to get the apps. It makes finding new apps easier for everyone. I personally like it for that reason alone.

So many creative artists created so many cool themes that makes the iPhone's visually much better looking. We are in a customizing trend, just look at the car industry, a Hummer isn't cool anymore unless it's customized. It's about choices, characters, uniqueness. Beside, it's my own responsibility for jailbreaking the phone, I am not going to complaint to Apple because I decided go against it's instruction. At the end of the day, it's all about money.

What I want is for them to lift the AT&T monopoly and let us legally unlock them so people can use them with any GSM carrier. Their contract expires this year, no? I wonder what'll happen next...
