It certainly took longer than usual, but what matters is that the iPhone 4S untethered jailbreak solution is finally nearing completion. The popular developer pod2g confirmed through his Twitter account that he has made huge progress towards getting full access to the iPhone 4S operating system. According to pod2g, if we are lucky enough, we will get the untethered jailbreaking tool for the iPhone 4S and the iPad2 running iOS 5.0.1 in just a week's time.
Those that had older iDevices - iPhone 4, 3GS and the original iPad got their untethered jailbreak in the final days of last year, but the A5 chipset proved much tougher to break.
