Orbit is a tweak released in Cydia more than a year ago that brought iDevice owners the possibility to see the Springboard pages in an expose, that is, in an overview. The tweak groups all Springboard pages into one screen and displays a preview for each of them, we can select the desired page to be displayed. The tweak was until today incompatible with iOS 4, but version 2.0 is available in Cydia for only $1.99. This version works on at least iOS 4.2.1 and is as easy to use as you can see in the tweak above and on iPhone 4 it works even better.

The developer has implemented compatibility with the activator plugin, so using gestures we can open Orbit from wherever we are. You can select which gestures should be used when you want to open Orbit, but be careful because installing the tweak and the Activator plugin could have a negative impact on battery autonomy. Orbit for iOS 4 is available in the BigBoss repo.
