Not sure if this has been mentioned on the macrumors site, it's been going around elsewhere but pod2g has spoken about ETA on untethered iOS 5.1 jailbreak (spoiler: it's ages away).

He also made a poll on his blog asking whether dev teams should work on iOS 5.1 or just wait (and potentially save any exploits they have) until iOS 6 is available. See link

Whilst I'm not surprised by the poll result, it is disappointing that so many people care about a jailbreak for a camera button and other minor tweaks rather than being able to see the big picture. Feel free to discuss.

I actually want the jailbreak for iOS 5.1 because I am sick of waiting and we don't know if apple knows of the exploits in 5.1 and whether they will patch them.
 
I would prefer to have a 5.1 jailbreak now, just for the recently released Quasar for iPad, instead of waiting until fall to see if apple implement a better solution to multitasking.
