14 DAY TRIAL // Who would have thought? Geohot is back and he’s just released Limera1n, an iOS jailbreak tool “6 months in the making” which supports “iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3G, iPad, iPhone 4, iPod Touch 4G, iOS 4.0-4.1 and beyond,” according to the hacker.
Geohot had previously announced that iOS jailbreaking was not fun anymore, but, for one reason or another, the infamous George Hotz decided to make an effort and treat the jailbreak community to Limera1n.
Over at limera1n.com, Geohot dishes out some details about the new release which, unfortunately for Mac and Linux users, is only available for Windows PCs at the moment.
Here’s the breakdown:
