Now it?s a few weeks later, and Apple has closed the jailbreakme.com hole. �They?re shipping devices with FW 4.0.2/3.2.2, impervious to this particular jailbreak. �So now, people will begin to ask: will there be a jailbreak for devices that shipped with 4.0.2/3.2.2, out of the box?
No, there won?t be. �FW 4.0.2/3.2.2 was *only* released to fix the jailbreakme hole. �With FW 4.1 still in its beta stages, it makes no sense to escalate the ?cat & mouse? with Apple for FW updates that only fix the jailbreak holes. To quote WOPR, ?the only winning move is not to play?.
If the cat & mouse game escalates too quickly, especially during beta FW periods, nobody but Apple benefits. �For this reason, there won?t be a 4.0.2/3.2.2 jailbreak specifically during the period where 4.0.2/3.2.2 is the latest public release. �At best, some future 4.1x FW jailbreak *may* be compatible with 4.0.2/3.2.2 (but don?t count on that).
If any of this is confusing, please ask below in our comments section!
P.S.: For those of you with iPhone3G or iPod Touch 2G(not MC version), it?s true you can always use redsn0w to jailbreak your 4.x devices. � Don?t let that dilute the above message, though :)
