anyone know how to find a list of actual apps that are only available on cydia and not on the app store?..i.e. grooveshark, app info, etc..

been looking around the interwebz trying to find app store apps that were rejected by apple and ended up on cydia...

not really interested in apps that perform some kind of tweak...


Thanks!

FYI a couple weeks ago an iOS5 compatible mobile terminal was released. I think it's in the big boss repo but I'm not 100% sure. I know it's in a default repo though. I used to use the ijailbreak repo for mobile terminal 520-1 but this new version that came out recently is 520-2 and fully supports iOS5.

Nice! Thanks for the info!

You're welcome. I just checked. It's in the bigboss repo and the author is MobileTerminal. Don't get it confused with the obsolete mobile terminal in the Cydia/Telephoreo repo! (I believe that one actually has the word obsolete in its title.)

If you want rejected App Store apps or apps that aren't available in your area, use Installous.
 
Some apps do make it to Cydia after being knocked off the App Store. VLC comes to mind, although it had a presence on Cydia before its debut and subsequent removal from the official store.

In general, I'd stay away from Installous. You sometimes see a horror story posted here every so often about the results from going there.
