This is hot news at the moment. It seems that well known hacker Geohot has accepted a challenge to jailbreak the new iPad 2. This challenge is to dump the iPad 2’s bootrom and it is going to be a race to see who can do this first.
The hacker who is currently working on the jailbreak for the iPad 2 is P0sixninja and according to his tweets he asked for more competition to see who could jailbreak the iPad 2 first. If his tweets are anything to go by, it seems that Geohot has accepted his challenge. Here is what P0sixninja tweeted:
@p0sixninja: I challenged geohot to dump the iPad 2 bootrom before me. Maybe having a worthy opponent will motivate me to work harder.
This was followed by:
@p0sixninja: He accepted, he said he didn’t have an iPad yet but he’s getting one really soon.
As you can see there is a competition on and we can’t wait to see who is the first to hack the iPad 2. Geohot is known for hacking iDevices and the news that he is going to try and jailbreak the iPad 2 is really going to excite the jailbreak community. Geohot was recently in the news after being sued by Sony for jailbreaking their PlayStation 3 console so it looks like he is enjoying the limelight and ready to jump back into it.
If you are waiting on a jailbreak for the new iPad 2 then this really is great news and hopefully the solution will come very soon too.
