iPhone Developing Team Unveils RedSn0w To Jailbreak iOS 5.0b1 For Windows
iPhone developers team has announced the release of Windows version of RedSn0w to Jailbreak iOS 5.0b1. This is a tethered jailbreak and so it is exclusively directed at iphone app developers.
According to the TechJournal, unlockers should not go near this since restoration to iOS5 would result in an upgrade of baseband. The catch-22 is that UltraSnow has not yet updated to the 0.5 level. In case you’re using windows, you may want to jailbreak your iPad 1G, iPod (ipod touch firmware 3.1.3 download) touch 4G/3G, or iPhone 4/3 GS via the Redsnow 0.9.8b1 windows version.
Apple offers Windows iTunes 10.5 for iCloud and iOS5 developers. This means that it's no longer true that only Mac users have access to the device. Redsnow0.9.8b1 version for Windows is now open for download, but this is only for developers.
