Last Friday the Chronic-Dev team release the long-awaited free unteathered jailbreak tool for the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 called Absinthe. Absinthe is the Jailbreak tool for A5 devices (the newer faster devices including the iPhone 4S and iPad 2). Now the Dev Team announced that 1 million people jailbroke their A5 device in under three days. More Details and Absinthe jailbreak tutorial after the break.

The numbers as of Monday afternoon are:

• 491,325 new iPhone4,1 devices
• 308,967 new iPad2 devices
• 152,940 previously jailbroken (at 4.x) iPad2 devices

Jailbreak Note: Remember the cardinal rule of jailbreaking: never update your firmware until a new jailbreak is available.  This is especially true for A5 owners, who currently have no way of restoring to 5.0.1 once the 5.0.1 SHSH blob signing window is closed.
