I've always loved Cydia and Installer, and even with 2.0, They both satisfy my needs.

But if I had to choose between them, I'd use Cydia.

The only reason I used Installer even back on 1.1.4 on the 2G was to get iDeleteMail and more iPhysics level packs not available on Cydia. Oh, and uXM and uSirius. None of those apps have been ported to 2.0.x yet so to me Installer is irrelevant at this point.

Couldn't agree with you more.....Installer has lost it's attraction. To me it seems that they are more worried about looks then actual functionality. Keep it simple and make it for what it's needed for. They all are great devs though and without them we would have nothing.

Ever since Cydia was released for 2.0, everyone whom have updated to 2.0 had Cydia and it was the only choice if ones decided to Jb his iPhone. And stucked with Cydia since, I guess people learned to live and like Cydia and wether Installer is coming back or not it won't matter anymore..because they've already have something to installs Apps on their iPhone...why wasted more space for something that does the same thing when Cydia repository got all the Third party apps first already. ...With Installer coming out late..I guess not much will be coming back to it since they've gotten used to Cydia by now...

I only use Cydia now. I see no reason to go back to Installer. It's been useless since 2.0.
