Apple aren't going to be happy!

Only problem I have with this, is, all good third party applications are now going to be costing us to download them, which sucks... I like free apps...

[DaveTaylor]

Not all are going to cost, it depends on the devs.

Whats the payment options?
I don't fancy putting credit card details into cydia.

If they make most apps cost something then I'm just gonna go back to using apples appstore. :/

If that does happen, wouldn't Apple get one too, for not believing in fair play (I think)? The one where they always get blamed for not allowing other companies to work with their products.

Great :rolleyes: What ever happened to it being free and opensource? :/

[:job2]

They should have copyrighted the 'app store' when they had the chance, loads of smart phones have started copying Apple now by making there own app stores.

I suppose Apple could argue that they didn't want a 3rd party app store for security reasons, people trust iTunes but I haven't heard of cydia
