Geohot has indicated that he will make the community an untethered jailbreak in exchange for some help...
"at 9AM EST tomorrow, I will be asking for all of your help..if you come through for me, i'll make you an untethered jailbreak. also $1000.00"
"at 9AM EST tomorrow, I need you all to trend something and do something, which will be revealed then..big rewards are in order if this works"
Currently the new iPod touch and the newer iPhone 3GS devices require a tethered jailbreak. Which, especially in the case of the iPhone, make jailbreaking impractical.
Its not clear what assistance Geohot is seeking however previous tweets indicate that he has been looking for "something capable of checking 3 trillion SHA-1 hashes/second for $20,000"
He also mentioned, "i wouldn't feel right with a distributed approach since it has to stay up for months and is commercial for me"
Stayed tuned...
