Assuming apple does use the SDK install method as a tool to prevent people from installing apps they don't approve of, what apps from installer do you think will be allowed through.

Personally i see things like Tap Tap revolution making it through while things like OpenSSH and BSDSubsystems having a harder time.

I especially think that the SOCKS server has a snoballs chance considering how it allows you to make your iPhone into an internet Dongle (something cingular/At&t have historically charged for).

I just want a few apps like:

- Make it Mine
- SummerBoard (I think this one will be a top pick)
- Games (Hell yea)
- Voice Notes
- To do
- Sketches
- Books
- Flashlight

I use these all the time, and I bet Apple won't have problems with any of them. Except Make it Mine as Apple has the agreements and since it changes the carriers name...although I don't see this as a problem.

I'm sure you don't, and after all, who are Apple, AT+T or any other huge international telecoms company to argue with the likes of you!?

My guesses:

- game emulators (hazy legal area).

- apps that use others code (since you will have to submit the code)

- anything made by a self-identified "hacker"

So only the good apps will make it over. :p
