RipDev Closes its doors (Finally)

After Ripdev came into the iphone scene when they bought installer from nullriver, They have written many tools and apps related to the iphone
including:
  • Installer for mac
  • i2Reader
  • Kate
  • Juice Drop
  • icy
As these tools became more and more popular, so did all of their technical flaws. Most recently Icy has been included in all of the jailbreak software. One of the worst things about this is that it always broke cydia. not to mention its arguably ugly UI design and slow loading times.

im leave it to all of you to wish them the best. if you so choose.

Well, I liked that Icy was able to landscape, helped me fix touch issues on the iphone...

WHY DOESN'T CYDIA learn from that at least? And talk about long loading times??? Cydia is extremely slow, but very very useful...

Hate to see any of the beneficial people stepping out of the game, but something tells me that some of the RIPDEV crew will be heard from again...

^My cydia is blazing fast. No issues there.

If you view the HTML source code of Ripdev.com, you'll see this interesting comment in there:

Hey there, fellow page source viewer! Unfortunately, there's nothing interesting here, other than that we are very, very sad about the fact the things turned that way. Here's a bit of advise: don't blindly trust your business partners - one day it may turn out that they will steal a year's worth income of the company and create another one, leaving you without possibility to control what you have been creating for several years.
