so I’ve had time to play around with a dozen or so Apps from the iTunes store and scanned through the rest.
Is there a giant leap in quality/selection compared to the mostly free Apps on AppTapp? Surprisingly - not really.
Since doing a restore and moving to firmware 2.0 I’ve had more crashes and restarts than when using Official Apps than on firmware 1.14 using jailbreak Apps. The range available is significantly smaller but that will change as more Apps are added.
there seems to be an App store equivalent to many of the jailbreak apps such as mobile flickr replacing iFlickr and in general the quality is higher. in some cases the Apps are identical apart from the fact you now have to pay.
While there are a few gems in there you’ll find some of the best apps like Fring and Video recorder absent. While useless apps like alarm and phonesaber have made it onto the store.
I will give a run down on all the apps I’ve tried soon, as well as which apps will never make the cross over from AppTapp/jailbreak and why. So check back in a few days.
