There are only two or three serious hackers/developers working on ios jailbreak for the last couple of years: pod2g, musclenerd... Anybody else?
Got a tip for us?

I think one of the main reasons I stick with the iPhone is because it plays the best with Mac. iMovie and iPhoto integration, Photo Stream, etc. Sure there are different ways to get similar results with 3rd party apps and services, but like Steve Jobs said, when I plug my iPhone into my Mac, "It just works."
And there is NO WAY IN HELL I am going back to a Windows machine for my home computer.

Fair enough, i thought you were jumping ship to windows because you couldn't jailbreak anymore and figured the windows world would be easier for that.
you forgot planetbeing. he provided crucial help for the iOS 5 JB. i believe he is doing the same for iOS 6 JB.
EDIT: check out this link from iClarified http://tw.gs/27v60
like before have said, the one that cracks the apple iOS and makes JB has many opportunities once they do.
i dont see why someone that has the skills wouldn't spend their time doing it to get the credentials up.
im hardly a programmer, it doesnt come to me like that but other young guns where programming flows like butter, they'll do it. only reason is i dont see why not.

@woolyefc @pod2g as well as many other devs have been very realistic about the challenges--unfortunately (cont) http://tl.gd/kagu6s

like most of the population??? are you the spokesperson for most of the population?
That's like 300 $1.99 apps. I call BS. Serious BS. One, that you could even find that many decent apps to pirate and two, that you can even use that many in one lifetime.
Every one of my friends JB and none us us 'pirate' apps, so there's my test sample.
I suspect there's a few app whore kids out there who horde apps just because they can, but I think the vast majority of JBs do so for usability.
I also Jailbreak so I can use Installous and test if I like an app. If I do, then I go and buy it to support developers, the way it should be.
When is Apple provide a way of testing an app before buying?

Not to doubt you, but most people who say this really don't support the devs at the end.
Are you able to use one of the 3rd party messaging apps, like GoSMS, that integrates with ios group messaging?
I'm fine for the time being. I had my iPhone 4 on 6.0/6.0.1 as the software was released, but I couldn't get over the absence of SBSettings. One weekend it ended up boiling over and I downgraded the phone back down to 5.1.1 after retrieving the SHSH blobs from Cydia. My upgrade is ready, though, and probably next weekend I'll be purchasing the GSIII. It's nothing against Apple, but I want a removable battery and the iPhone can't provide that.
Thats awesome. Is goSMS the app you use or something else? I'm pumped to switch over to android.
I'm using the stock messaging app but I've used goSMS and it works great. The switch is great. Apple would have to really step its game up to even make me consider going back.
