As you have probably realized, we are desperately waiting for the A5 jailbreak for iOS 5.0.1 here at the GS headquarters. Everyone here rocks the iPhone 4S, and all 15 of our company iPad 2s are sitting without a jailbreak. I haven’t gone this long without Cydia on my phone since before I had an iPhone. Since October we’ve been begging to see something. Luckily pod2g has been digging through code and working his arse off to yield us a pretty jailbreak.

We’ve been following his work on the A4 release that took place at the end of 2011, and we’ve been sitting on the edge of our seats waiting for the little A5 jailbreak morsel that happens to fall off of his internet table. Over the past 2 weeks or so, we’ve been seeing a lot on the iPhone 4S, but haven’t seen 1 picture showing Cydia running on the iPad 2. Well, today pod2g gave us a sexy little snapshot showing Apple’s second tablet running iOS 5.0.1 with Cydia blasted across it! All the hard work put in by pod2g and the rest of his ‘Dream Team’ have paid off. We not just sit and wait for the app to distribute to the masses is finished being written. Thankfully we’ll be kept in the loop as the progress continues.

Hopefully we’ll have something here soon! We’ll let you know as soon as we hear it. And hop on over to pod2g’s blog for constant updates!
