iPhone 4, iPad 3.2.1 jailbroken through 'Slide to Jailbreak' website

It’s been an agonising few weeks for iPhone 4 users hoping to relinquish their devices from the grip of Apple and get that sharp-screened beauty running SNES emulators, custom lock screens, and advanced theming options.

Though now, thanks to hacker Comex (the creator of the popular Spirit jailbreak) you can point your iPhone 4’s Mobile Safari browser at JailbreakMe.com and hit the “Slide to Jailbreak” button. Your gadget will be hit with reams of data that’ll liberate your phone and dump dodgy app distro Cydia on your home screen.

It’s also useful for iPad users running the latest 3.2.1 update, which features a number of bug fixes, patching up issues with wi-fi and video playback. This tool will jailbreak those iPads, too.

As usual, any and all jailbreaks should be approached with caution, as you’ll likely void your warranty with Apple, and are at risk of damaging your device irreparably if you’re not careful. No blame lands on Pocket Gamer’s shoulders for providing the link, so proceed with care.
