iOS 6.1.2 Can Still Be Jailbroken with Evasi0n [Update]

Apple released iOS 6.1.2 this morning to patch an Exchange calendar bug, but it appears this version can still be jailbroken on the iPad mini and iPhone 5 (for now) via evasi0n, notes @planetbeing:
Not yet able to test all devices, but it's looking good for 6.1.2. iPad mini wi-fi and iPhone 5 are still jailbreakable.

If you are currently jailbroken and want to update, you will have to backup, do a complete restore with iTunes to iOS 6.1.2, activate and recover your backup then jailbreak with evasi0n. Of course, this sounds like a lot of ‘work’ so only do so if you really want to get on iOS 6.1.2.
Update: evasi0n 1.4 is coming later this afternoon to support iOS 6.1.2:
We will release evasi0n 1.4 later today that marks iOS 6.1.2 as supported.

Kind of a useless update, from what I have seen the exchange issue is only with MS exchange servers, and they didn’t fix the lock screen exploit. I have had not issues, so not updating.
