Categories allows you to organise your apps into folders. I haven’t tried it, so let me know how it goes!

I have wondered whether to j/b my phone and had looked forward to seeing your reasons for so doing. Unfortunately, for me none of your options provides sufficient reason. I don’t tether, don’t yet have a need for anything to run in the background (over and above the existing Apple functions) and wouldn’t use the video capture (the camera is bad enough as it is 😉 ).

However, one thing that might push me into the j/b community is that of Home screen cluture. I have six screens of apps (I no longer keep Safari shortcuts on the Home screen to conserve space!) and navigating these, as well as their organisation, is a nightmare. I think there is a j/b option that allows folders and for that reason alone I may be paying the DevTeam a visit (although all their warnings are a mite disconcerting).
