We have already told you about an upcoming tool named Antid0te which promises to enhance the security mechanism of all the current jailbroken iOS devices so that they are secured as much, or even more than the non-jailbroken iOS devices.

One of the things that I find annoying when downloading apps from the App Store is that it closes right after you start downloading an app. This behavior not only hampers the otherwise great experience, but it also slows things down as you have to reopen App Store again and again after every purchase until you are done with your app shopping.
