14 DAY TRIAL // For those eagerly anticipating a jailbreak for iOS 5.1 on A5 devices, as well as for the new iPad, French hacker Joshua Hill has a clear message: “it's not out and I have no clue when it'll happen.”
Seemingly tired of being nagged about his progress on the latest iOS jailbreaks, Pod2g (Joshua’s Twitter handle) wrote, “About 5.1 jailbreak for A5+ devices : it's not out and I have no clue when it'll happen. I'm working some hours per week on finding vulns.”
In a series of subsequent tweets, he added, “But right now we (cdev) have some pieces of a userland jailbreak, but we miss some, and even if we had them all, there's weeks of work to put them all together in a public ready tool.”
In other words, there’s simply too much work to be done in order to properly asses a potential release at this point.
