iPhone firmware 2.0.1 does nothing for jailbreakers

Well I updated to the iphone 2.0.1 firmware today and it all went fine, if you’ve read my other iphone posts then you’ll know I have an unlocked iphone (not 3G) and I was able to just download the update through iTunes and update through that as well without a problem, well there was one little problem. If you’ve used a jailbroken iphone before then you’ll know that it will have an app called installer and the newer app called cydia. Installer isn’t compatible with the 2.0 firmware yet but cydia was but since doing the upgrade to 2.0.1 I have lost the cydia app so I now can’t get any of the thousands of free apps.
This is disappointing in a way but considering that the app store is going to be more stable in this firmware then I don’t really see anything really bad at the moment but I’m sure I will want it in the future for features such as openSSH. As for now if you own an original iphone then you can upgrade and everything will work apart from the cydia issue so enjoy!

If your unlocked then you can’t upgrade you should add that to your post
