Jailbroken iPad 2 iOS 5.0.1 [Updated]

A couple days ago, pod2g shared with us the video of a jailbroken iPhone 4S. What could be considered as a tease is actually a way to keep us updated about the progress of the various teams working on the jailbreak.

Today, pod2g teased us a little more by posting the image of a jailbroken iPad 2 running iOS 5.0.1 on his blog…

The photo comes with a few words:

No more to say !

What is this supposed to mean? That the jailbreak for iPhone 4S and iPad 2 is nearing completion? We’ve heard the same encouraging message for a couple weeks now, so let’s not get our hopes up quite yet.

So far, only older devices running iOS 5.0.1 can be jailbroken, using PwnageTool,RedSn0w, or even Sn0wBreeze. The iPhone 4S and iPad 2 sport Apple’s A5 chip which is currently immune to exploits used for the latest untethered jailbreak. This is something that hopefully won’t last long.

UPDATE: Looks like pod2g removed the image and post from his blog. We’re not sure what it means but if I had to take a guess I’d say other jailbreak hackers such as MuscleNerd kindly asked him not to show off any jailbreak until it’s ready. I could be wrong though. What’s your guess?
