well…. i noticed that the cracked apps for iPhone 2.0 have shitty square icons without the effect and shine that we iPhone users have so gotten used to.. made my Springboard look real bad.. i can’t stand that you know..
so after much effort and a lot of coding to automate the process i present to you..
iPhone 2.0 App Original Icons from iTunes
[these are icons with rounded corners and shine. the way they look in iTunes and the way they're supposed to look on the iPhone because after all i pulled them outta the iTunes XML files.. ]
these will definitely make your Springboard look better..

people who are cracking the apps may feel free to use these icons in the app folder before distribution.

it’s a sad day for Apple Inc.
they thought they were on top of things when they decided to take a 30% cut from the developers’ earnings from the iPhone App Store..

it’s the basic nature of all software to be crackable.. i’m yet to see an application that’s got no crack to go along with it on the torrent sites…

now that the simple crack to patch the DRM is out.. we should expect to see a great deal of cracked apps to start floating around..

Apple can kiss goodbye to their app store revenue… [well most of it atleast..]
