Apparently fed up with all the nagging from the iOS community, hacker Pod2g is giving his ETA for the upcoming iOS 5.1 untethered jailbreak: “no clue!”

The latest tweet from the Internationally-known hacker reads: “ETA for 5.1 JB: no clue! We're going to set pieces of the puzzle together this week. We could have issues... Could be 1 month maybe 2…”

The last time Pod2g made an announcement on Twitter regarding his progress on the iOS 5.1 front, the hacker informed all his followers that he had bypassed the address space layout randomization (ASLR). ASLR makes it difficult for an attacker to predict target addresses. The technology was implemented by Apple in iOS to thwart security attacks.
