If Apple would put in the setting a box you can check to allow sideloading of apps, theer wouldn't be a need to jailbreak.

Its like the movies, for there to be a hero there has to be a villian. In this case Apple is the villain and the jailbreak devs are the heros.

Since Apple's app approval process won't allow all apps on their store, preventing me from using another store is anti-competitive. Suppose MS prevented installing apps they didn't approve? Same for OSX? Same for Linux?

Why hasn't someone stood up and voiced that this is our device and Apple locking us to one vendor is illegal?

If HTC didn't lock the Droid 2 Incredible, there wouldn't be a need for permanent root.

Why don't YOU do it, if you dislike it so much? Of course, you'd be wasting your time, because unless a company has monopolistic power AND uses that power to suppress competition, it's not illegal.

You really don't like the Apple walled garden? Then sell all of your Apple products, including the iPad that you said you owned and then sold, but more recently claim you own. :lol:

The reason is because iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad, are all non-computer devices. Yes, it is illegal for a computer company to limit computers, but as it stands, as suggested by the names, an iPod, is an ipod. nothing more, nothing less. no matter what feature they add to it, it is still just an mp3 player, as the iPhone, is just a phone, and an ipad is still just a rip-off of the ipod but bigger with more features. until they meet the specs as an actual computer, they have every right. :\
