xD... Thats for JailBreaking your Ipod (A process of getting free apps from the app store)...
I have already done that (Its very simple...), but it has nothing to do with app development...

You had better have a pretty good idea as to how you are going to sell this thing, if it's a paid app. Consider releasing it for free and offering DLC.

I am not worried... ^^

I think you should be. Piracy a Major Problem on iPhone, Claims Ngmoco at Slide To Play

And it does have to do with development, as you could release apps that Apple rejects through Cydia, Rockapp, etc.

Take the apps for the app store...

I don't think they will turn down my apps in other words (Perfectly good apps)...

I don't think Apple has ever done that...
The reason why many apps get released through Cydia/Rock is because they are things that Apple doesn't want. (Multitasking, Internet downloading, themes, etc.) I don;t think they would put them in the App Store.

Umm... A lot of the apps in the app store are encouraging viewing the source and getting admin rights, some others are anonymous email senders and so on...

I see why Apple didn't approve of those xD

PS: They don't always allow the apps, they take off apps all the time...
