thats just lame...either allow all apps into the app store to lets us tweak to our hearts content or leave jailbreak alone... jailbreak shows you just how capable people are to tweak and explore the limits of their gadgets...i'm all for it

You can still jailbreak the phone and tweak to your hearts content... there may just be fewer apps available to take advantage of it. So I guess we'll see how capable jail breakers really are now that they will need to write their own apps...

You can sue anyone for anything... so I wouldn't be surprised if they do pop up. But honestly, how is this a monopoly? Why can't a company make a profit on it's own innovation? Apple has been smart and invested a lot of money in all of this. They have every right to set the terms as they see fit.
