^ Can you move that around - make it more central?

Once you download the app, you have 3 choices, a clock, the weather widget and a calendar widget. You select one and then select a page. Since this was designed for an iPhone, page 1-3 will put the widget on the spotlight page. 4-6 on page 1 of your first screen and so on. What you see on there is actually the weather widget selected for page 5, even though that is my first iPad page.

Load the app and you'll see what imean.
 
HTC Weather Animated PerPageHTML - Adds a weather widget to your homescreen. Requires a tiny iFile code adjustment to make it work for your city and if you want F or C for temp. Gives a nice HTC widget touch to the iPad though.

How did you get the date at the top in the notification area ?
 
RetinaPad is AMAZING--well worth the $3 and then some for how well it works at making enjoyable again some of the iPhone apps I love that a year later still haven't been updated for iPad. (And as mentioned by others, it's fine with Winterboard...if you're not a thief.)

Black Keyboard is gorgeous. No, it doesn't work in Cydia or iFile--neither do most other theming-related tweaks, for good reason. Minor annoyance, not worth not picking it up over--especially since it's free!

FolderEnhancer is just as good on the iPad as on the iPhone. I'm down to a single springboard page because of it. Light years better than Apple's stock folder implementation.

Photo Albums+ is also just as good as on the iPhone, and fixes a stupid issue that never should have been there in the first place. Hello, Apple? Why wasn't this part of iOS4 and up?

Oh, and SBSettings. Again, one of those things that make you wonder why Apple is so stubborn about the more awkward parts of their UI. (or the ugly ones--see Black Keyboard)

(Also carried over from my phone, things like NoSpot, No Page Dots, PkgBackup, and iFile.)
 
Not trying to rain on anyone's parade but I have to say that after jailbreaking my iPad2, I just can't find very many cydia tweaks that are really that necessary (specific to the way I use the ipad).

FolderEnhancer would be useful (if I was anywhere near the 20 app cap)
5-Row Keyboard is the most useful plugin by far. Why Apple didn't give you the option to have the row of numbers displayed all the time, is beyond me.
NoLockScreen I use every time I open the iPad! But is it really necessary?? Nah.
F**kTimeWarner is necessary if you want to use the time warner app with a jailbroken ipad. Do I ever use the time warner app? Hmm. Very rarely.
IFile is extremely useful if one needs to constantly crawl beneath the hood. I only used it once, to install the pdf security fix.
Oh and there is RetinaPad. Yes, good. I only have one app that I use it with and that would be Skype... How often do I use Skype? Only when traveling overseas. Last trip: November 2010.

I'm not interested in any of these winterboard theme sets. I created my own wallpaper and that's fine by me. I could see one very useful tweak not available, which probably means it's impossible to create? Don't know... But I would love to be able to make my folders larger - maybe twice the size.

So at the end of the day, it appears that 5-Row Keyboard is the one tweak I really find indispensable. But could I live without it? Of course. Will I be junking the jailbreak and upgrading the day that iOS5 is released? Absolutely.

Have I missed something?

p.s. I use MyWi on my jailbroken iPhone and that proves to be very useful when on the occasional roadtrip or in a cafe that has no wifi (rare). I will probably keep my iPhone jailbroken.

Thought I could try to revive this thread as the new iPad is out. I am basically everything apple but this is my first time owning an iPad. I can't wait till the new JB is released.

Thought I would ask Again what are people's favorite Cydia apps/tweaks/themes?? Is there something that allows multiple user logins on lock screen??

Can't wait to see what retina related things are going to come out!!!
