    I see that more and more often people are less feeling the need to jailbreak -- Apple has implemented most feature requests by now. What's happening now is that people are actually wanting more out of iOS -- a la "iOS is boring now" or "iOS is aging."

    It's a stretch, but I think what might happen is that a team of talented software developers are going to announce something that is going to completely change the way we use iOS. Something completely new. Something to make iOS customization stand out, beyond simple tweaks and theming.

    Whatever it will be, it's going to bring back a need for jailbreaking. Everything can be monetized. Even with rampant piracy, the Cydia store is a great platform for monetizing jailbreak software, and I think there's someone, somewhere, out there ready to take advantage of it.

    I'm probably wrong.

    for me.. Lockinfo would do nicely. The new notification center is fine, but they need to add that to the lock screen or make it a choice.
