In the past what has worked for me, and i'm not positive it still works this way, but the icons are displayed in the order they are loaded, and in the login items, you can delete and then re-ad the 3rd party apps in the order you want them displayed.

This is a HUGE disappointment. The only reason I purchased the app was for the volume button shutter control.

I USED to Jailbreak, and I did for a long time. I went through many bouts of lag, buggy response, random crashes, and horrible battery life. After running a jail broken iPhone for over a year, and going back to "stock" it works like a brand new phone again. The issues has stopped. Sure, some of the features of Jailbreaking are nice, but I rely on my phone on a daily basis, and jailbreaking caused me too many headaches. I doubt I'd go back...
