Who Donated to the Jailbreak?

$20.00 sent hopefully these donations will show we appreciation for the work. along with the fact that that we are not all bunch of screaming crybaby's. they put allot of hours in on this and they do deserve some return for there efforts.

I hope they do well with this. I know it was a grizzly to conquer, and they're going to have to stay on top of bulletins involving iTunes updates, because I'm sure Apple's in the middle of trying to break the iTunes utilization by Absinthe.

GK from HT? Wowzas!
 
I haven't donated, and I probably won't either, despite having jailbroken the iPad 2. The reason for not donating is that I wouldn't buy it if they charged for it. I donate to developers that produce something that I would pay for to keep, should they not offer it for free anymore.

Although... I have bought apps in Cydia. This should mean that I appreciate the fact that I could buy them, and therefore donate. On the other hand, if I had to pay for the Jailbreak I'd "return" the apps.

Just figured I'd be honest instead of not answering at all. At least I'm not one of those greedy bastards who wants everything for free 😉

well if that's not just the worst logic I've ever heard. If you're paying for the apps (or donating to those that made them you should give the guys who let them make the app something too, it's like paying for the video game but stealing the console. The jailbreak is easily 100000x harder to do than the tweaks that are available from them.
 
I did 20$

I just want to make sure that the "incentive" remains alive. I know it is a great deal of hard work to produce these jailbreaks (and their maintenance) and I hope the dev team knows that there is a great deal of us that are glad to contribute for their hard work.
 
oh btw props too Voltes for bumping a thread that was started in August rather then starting another one.. 😀
 
I paid $5 which isn't a lot as a one off payment but I hope lots of people donated to give something back for the developers time
 
I donated £100 and £10 per month for every month that goes by without any issue. No logic here just fun and games
