pod2g Confirms He’s Working on OS 4.1 Exploit Independently

Quick update for all those of you wondering what’s going on with iOS 4.1 jailbreak: with a series of tweets a few minutes ago, @pod2g has confirmed that he’s now working on the exploit that will make iOS 4.1 jailbreakable on his own. He’s not affiliated with the Chronic and iPhone Dev Team anymore, and the exploit will be his independent creation.

As @pod2g also wrote on Twitter, this is no big deal for final users as both the Chronic and iPhone Dev Team has been given all the details behind the exploit. Pod2g is not a jailbreak tool maker, he’s only focused on making the bootrom exploit work on 4.1.

Jailbreak for iOS 4.1 is set to be released soon, but no release date has been announced yet.
