Yeah I know, and I support them (through effort - I'm on several beta teams - as well as money) and will continue to do so.

Specifically for THIS app, which is a nice integration of some manual steps and some patches that were documented over at XDA, its somewhat troubling to see it go commercial.

While this may be somewhat true for the earlier versions (say up to 0.5), the latest versions incorporate no patches and use only a handful of tweaks orginating from XDA (MSDN, dissassembling, etc, ugh!). Most of the stuff is done in very different ways from the original posts by fluxist and TalynOne. Add to that that a fair number of these things were documented by yours truly (either directly through posting or PM's with TalynOne and then added to the opening posts), and a bunch of this stuff isn't documented anywhere at all, I fail to see what's so troubling about it.
To each their own opinions though, I'm done discussing it. I have my reasons, if you like to think it is because I want to make this my day job or see it (or you guys) as a cash cow, then go right ahead.
