Finally, excuse my ignorance but, besides cost, what are the risks of using programs like 2.0, iLog, Kate, Intelliscreen?
|
Well Kate and Intelliscreen hook pretty early in the boot process so when they have gone wrong, people have had to restore their phones, that would be the only real risk, (and the risk to your wallet)

I used both Kate and Intelliscreen and though I stuck with it, I did have a couple of infinite reboot scenario's .... kinda buggy apps, and given there is no 'safe mode' on the iphone they can be deadly ... that being said if you have SSH turned on on reboot you can even get around these problems.

Apple will, themselves, update the iPhone software to include this ala interstink's comment:

Well I definitely don't think the notification service will fix this since the server-notifier will not know about your sms/phonecalls, (though if the server was your exchange server, it MIGHT know you have an email, but definitely NOT the scope-design apple is thinking of.
I'm kinda shocked Apple didn't include this and hasn't included it in updates, but when you think about it, WM also needed apps like PA to get similar functionality, (including obvious things like phone scheduled profiles), so maybe Apple and MS are just not experienced enough in the phone market to release what people need. But given how few iLog/Kate/Intelliscreen types apps there are, maybe a lot of people just don't need this feature, (though I KNOW I do!)
