GeoHot: Jailbreak for 3.1 For All iPhones and iPod Touches Coming

It looks like GeoHot (also known as George Hotz) is at it again. He is one of the iPhone hackers out there that always seems to discover exploits and releases jailbreaking tools apart from the iPhone Dev Team.

This time around, in his recent blog post titled “Meet the Family”, he talks about the upcoming release of a jailbreak tool that will work for ALL iPhone and iPod Touches on 3.1 firmware. Here’s what he had to say:

no affiliation to greenpois0n. and it’s in some ways the complete opposite of purplera1n. but still 10 seconds. and may work for every version of software *ever*, based on the prettiness of the exploit

iPhone, iPod Touch, iPhone 3G, iPod Touch 2G, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3G

Wow. If this tool is for real, it will be able to jailbreak your device in 10 seconds and could work on every version of upcoming firmware forever! Hot diggity! This is some exciting stuff and props to GeoHot for his hard work.

Don’t forget the Windows version of PwnageTool, called sn0wbreeze, is coming October 12th as well. It’s a good time for all iPhone and iPod Touch users!
