SHAtter Jailbreak Demoed on Apple TV!!!

The Dev-Team has now managed to jailbreak the newly released 2nd-gen Apple TV, running 4.1 using SHAtter exploit loaded on a beta version of PwnageTool. SHAtter is a low-level bootrom exploit. In order to patch this jailbreak they will have to introduce newer hardware devices for all the current iOS devices to patch the jailbreak.So your Devices Will be jailbroken for life using the SHAtter exploit!!

This comes from the Dev Team's blog: It’s confirmed…SHAtter can trick Apple’s new AppleTV 2G into restoring to a pre-jailbroken IPSW from PwnageTool too!  Literally the only UI application on the ATV is Lowtide.app, but now the window is open for jailbroken apps of all varieties.  (Just like the early iPhone days, the only apps you’ll see on the AppleTV will be jailbroken ones). In the meantime, here’s a video showing root access (via ssh) into Apple’s new product.  

So there you go sound pretty exciting right? Well there is no date on release but very very soon.
