Untethered Jailbreak May be Delayed Until iOS 4.3.1 Release

After we have showed you the untethered jailbreak demo video for iOS 4.3 few hours ago, the hacker behind the exploit seemingly will hold his jailbreak until Apple releases iOS 4.3.1.
With Apple already baking 4.3.1 the first one releasing an iOS 4.3 jailbreak will pretty much burn the exploit :P
Well Apple should release 4.3.1 very soon, because tomorrow everybody knows that @0xcharlie popped an iPhone 4 at #pwn2own through Safari.
How he justify this ? the hacker expected that Apple should release iOS 4.3.1 specially after the hackers (at Pwn2Own contest) has successfully hacked iPhone 4 via vulnerability which found in Mobile Safari running iOS 4.2.1. Although the vulnerability is also exist on iOS 4.3, but all iOS devices running iOS 4.3 are safe until hackers find a way to bypass the ASLR (Address Space Layout Randomization) which has been implemented by Apple starting form iOS 4.3.

The winners of Pwn2Own have mentioned that it's difficult to bypass ASLR security in iOS 4.3, so I don't expect that Apple will release a new firmware for patching exploit didn't discovered yet, I think this is the logic.

According to the above, I don't think this is a good decision to hold iOS 4.3 untethered jailbreak. What do you think? [via Twitter]

it would be better tell us they can´t jailbreak 4.3! Not my case, but there are lots of people waiting for the unlock to use their phone as a phone, not ipod...

Are you craizy? To JB a device is not just-to, it can take months. I remember back in iOS 3.1.2, it took hackers 1-2 months to find a exploit!

And 2-3 month to find a way to unlock the iPhone. And thanks to George Hotz that was posible!

Bloffers have become, there's always a new excuse! That when you leave the 4.2, which improved to 4.3, soon .... Bloffers!! We are waiting, to be honest and say that they have nothing, just playing with us, or just maybe your customers (yes, to whom they sell their software first) no comments have already said here. Sell ​​my iPhone on eBay right now, and I'm tired of not having a decent phone unir, since along months) Thank you hackers ... for nothing

geohot didn't took half a year to jailbreak the ps3 and didn't gave people hopes about it,he just release it,and that what makes him different than those hackers dump ass who promise things and nothing happen, give the unlock and the game is over.Half a year using my iphone 4 as a super ipod this is enough

Nowadays anyone can be a hacker. You don't release a shit but you promise everything for tomorrow, some day... You're the best!!!

always excuses... makes all of us think that apple beat the dev and they can't find a way to unlock iphone 4... just be straight up!!

Excuses, Excuses and Excuses. I think it is time to let it loose to all. Since the 4.2.x came out all has been on hold for 4.3 to preserve, but now it is 4.3.1 and tomorrow it will be for 4.3x until we hit the 5.x and so on, Lets take out chances, Geohot came out and forced it and they still had more holes on hand. Where is Geohot to put this all in prespective.

always you just say: it delaeyd. No matter is JB or UNLOCK. Its pissed me off if you say, you found "EXPLOIT"[(what ever exploit) but after you tell you found nothing(I am one of millions PPL)]
I just hope good for you, that you REALLY found exploit(for unlock iphone 4-4.1, BB 2.10.04)

Just dont give PPL "FAKE HOPE"
Tell like, THINGS is!
