It had to be done :D
Interesting that the Jailbreak's Installer.app is an on-line link to the apps themselves which the tool downloads and installs automatically. Some of the apps are rubbish, but a fair few are quite useful.
Downloading the apps is dependent upon the prevailing broadband/wifi connect situation. Installation is a snap, very Apple and hands-off. Once the Dock is full another page forms which you can flip over to.
I must say that I did not want to do this but the temptation got too much in the end. The iPod Touch became the sacraficial lamb. I won't be too tempted to use this on the iPhone - although, according to reports, at least 4,500 have on Vodafone :D
I know they wont want to officially - but Apple should take the shackles off. This brief experience with Installer.app on the Jailbroken iPod Touch is exciting. It has confirmed all the suspicions about OS X apps on the platform. They run very well indeed, putting Windows Mobile and others into the shade by a long way.
