Want some hands-on time with IntelliScreenX before it is officially released tomorrow?
If you watched our video walkthrough of IntelliScreenX, then no doubt, the answer to that question is an emphatic yes.
If you have a jailbroken iPhone or iPod touch running iOS 5, then check inside for the details you need to try out IntelliScreenX right now...
Today we finally got to go hands-on with a near final beta version of IntelliScreenX — the highly anticipated jailbreak app for iOS 5's Notification Center — and let's just cut to the chase, it lives up to the hype, and then some.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is how Notification Center is done. IntelliScreenX makes iOS 5's new pull down menu, a literal center of notifications.
There's Twitter, Facebook, RSS, and email, and it's done in such a way that you can communicate without ever leaving Notification Center; you can even do so from the Lock screen.
Check inside for a full video preview of IntelliScreenX, and you'll see why this upcoming app is reason enough alone to jailbreak your iPhone...
As time goes on, and as more people get their hands on iOS 5, Notification Center is fast becoming the next big thing in the world of jailbreaking.
Originally designed by Apple to offer a new home for push notifications, emails, messages, and anything else that pops up on-screen, Notification Center is also home to the Stocks and Weather widget. The jailbreak community clearly thinks that's a waste, and has set about releasing new and interesting widgets at an alarming rate.
The latest widget to catch our eye is WeeCompose – a handy widget that offers a quick way of sending new emails, iMessages, and texts...
Notification Center is far and away one of the top features of the new iOS 5, but it's not without its opportunities for improvement.
Case in point, you can only see four lines of text maximum on any of the messages that are queued up in Notification Center. There's no way to customize the length of the messages that are displayed.
There's also the annoying matter of having to tap twice to clear out any messages. NotificationCenter Enhancer seeks to address these issues...
Nyan Cat fans rejoice. Now, not only can you get Nyan Cat sliders to replace your stock iOS sliders, you can now place a Nyan Cat directly in Notification Center.
Some will undoubtedly hate this, while others will be mightily amused. Which camp do you belong to?
Either way, you owe it to yourself to check out NCNyanCat, at least once...
Quickly switching between pages and apps via Notification Center is now possible, and WeeSpaces is the jailbreak widget that makes it so.
WeeSpaces is a widget that places links to all of your running apps and SpringBoard pages directly in Notification Center.

WeeSearch is a recently released Notification Center jailbreak widget for iOS 5, which allows for YouTube, Google, and Wikipedia searches right from the convenience of Notification Center.
It's free, and it works to a certain extent, but it's obvious that the widget was rushed in its development. It's missing a few fundamental features, and not everything works as expected.
Check inside for a full rundown on what's good and bad about WeeSearch...
Notice I said favorite RSS feed, and not feeds. Yes, RSSWidget works great, but it's ridiculously restrictive when it comes to the number of feeds you can have.
In fact, you can only have one feed. Besides that obvious limitation, RSSWidget is a decent little Notification Center jailbreak widget. Check inside as we take it for a spin on video...
Need to jot down a quick phone number, recipe, directions, or an address? If you have an iPhone 4S, you could always rely on Siri, but what if you don't?
A simple solution would be QuickMemo — a Notification Center widget for jailbroken iOS 5 devices, which allows you to jot down notes with a simple swipe of the status bar.
It's not perfect, but QuickMemo is more than adequate to function as a scratch pad. Take a look inside for a video walkthrough that shows the widget in action...
A couple of days ago, we highlighted FavoriteContacts — a new jailbreak widget that allows you to dial, text, and email your favorite contacts, right from Notification Center.
Today, we bring you a similar tweak, with a few noticeable differences. Like FavoriteContacts, WeeSpeeddial allows you to dial contacts from Notification Center, but it relies on a custom set of contacts configured in a dedicated settings panel.
How does this tweak stack up to FavoriteContacts? Check out the video walkthrough inside...
When you ride in a luxury car, one of the first things you'll notice is an analog clock. It's a sign of grace, style, and precision.
Since the iPhone is arguably the "luxury car" of smart phones, it's only right that an analog clock graces iOS 5's new Notification Center.
Sure enough, not long after iOS 5 was released to the public, ClockCenter shows up on Cydia...
If you're a long-time jailbreaker, then you're already well aware that a ton of flashlight apps and tweaks litter the Cydia store.
Folks, it's time to add yet another to the list; but this one is unique, because it relies on iOS 5's Notification Center.
With WeeFlashlight, a quick slide on the status bar is all it takes to put a handy torch at your fingertips. Check inside for the full scoop...
