Famed iPhone developer ih8sn0w has just released Sn0wbreeze 2.9.4 for Windows which brings support for iOS 5.1.1 untether on A4 powered devices such as the iPhone 4, iPad 1, iPod touch 4G, Apple TV 2G and below.
With the release of the shiny new untether for 5.1.1, there are now a lot more jailbroken iOS devices just waiting to be modified and enhanced through the installation of various Cydia packages. With the Cydia store being so vast and containing thousands and thousands of offerings, it can often be difficult for inexperienced users to find what they are looking for.
With the official Absinthe 2.0 jailbreak tool being released today, users who had been waiting to jailbreak their iOS 5.1.1 devices are free to go ahead and do so and enjoy all the untethered goodness which awaits them. However, amidst all the excitement and chaos of the official jailbreak release, the Chronic Dev Team haven't forgotten about those users who have been benefitting from a tethered jailbreak over the last few weeks.
We are once again sitting right in the middle of that beautiful time period when updated jailbreaking tools are available, which allow us to free our iOS devices from their technical shackles. For those who have been sitting with an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad running Apple's iOS 5.1.1 firmware, you will no doubt be aware that after weeks of hard work and research, Pod2g and his team have released an untethered jailbreak for all existing iOS devices, excluding the third-generation Apple TV.
Grand Theft Auto is a classic title, and when Rockstar Games released a 10th Anniversary Edition of GTA III for iOS (and subsequently Android), mobile games far and wide felt the nostalgia crawling back.

Originally announced back in October of 2011 and released in December of the same year, Infinity Blade II has set a benchmark in iOS gaming, thanks to its breathtaking graphics and solid storyline. To take the fun even further, Epic Games have pushed out an update for said title dubbed as “Vault of Tears”.
Those who are familiar with the world of jailbreaking will no doubt know that the next couple of days represents a great time for the community, with Pod2g and his band of merry men almost ready to push the button and release their iOS 5.1.1 untether jailbreak, which will liberate all devices capable of running the latest firmware, with the exclusion of the third-generation Apple TV. Whether you believe in coincidence or not, the main players in the production of the jailbreak all happen to be under one roof at the Hack In The Box security conference (HITBSecConf) in Amsterdam.

Beginning with mere text chat back in the days of IRC, communicating online via voice and video has now become commonplace, and thanks to the likes of Skype and FaceTime, it's never been so easy to have a face-to-face conversation with friends and relatives across the world from many different devices.
Jony Ive, or Sir Jony Ive as he is known in his native United Kingdom, is widely regarded as the man behind some of Apple's most iconic designs. Once described by Steve Jobs as the man with the most power and influence within the fruit company besides himself, he is responsible for the look of everything from the MacBook air to the market-defining iPad.
