Download Sn0wbreeze v2.8b9 To Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 Beta On Windows

Apple seeded iOS 5.0.1 beta day before yesterday to address battery issues with some minor bug fixes. Today, @iH8n0w has pushed an update to his Windows exclusive custom iOS firmware creation tool i.e Sn0wbreeze v2.8b9 which supports iOS 5.0.1 beta 1 jailbreak on iPhone 4/3GS, iPod touch 3G/4G and original iPad. No support for iPad 2 or iPhone 4S though. Since this jailbreak is once again tethered, iBooty is required to boot into jailbroken state after each reboot.

Here are the release notes:
