Now that jail breaking is legal, what do we get to look forward to? Are we going to see more APP sites with better deals on APPS? Are we going to see more free APPS ? I'm just curious what benefit of being legal will do.

Someone explained to me jb is legal while installous is not. As installous is like torrentz. It's piracy.
Legality is not the only problem with jailbreaking.
Remember jb apps are non curated.
Android had a recent scare about an app forwarding users details to a Chinese website.
Yeah well you know what your getting yourself into when you JB. When you jailbreak your device your are actually removing some of apples security checks and allowing any app to do whatever it wants (even app store apps that have been through the review process can be of some danger after JB).
this whole jailbreak business confess the heck out of me

This is very informative. What would the apps do? Inquiring Minds Wanna Know.
anything... after you jailbreak your device all apps have full access to do as they please.
Collect personal info etc.... Thats why you should make sure you know what your installing before just installing random stuff. Especially doing things like adding repo's to cydia, make sure its a safe repo before adding it.
