Just been made aware that threads to solicit donations are against forum policy. This post is not an offer to solicit, just to inform on those who are awaiting a update from GeoHotz. Therefore, please do not discuss donating to GeoHotz cause.

Prior to posting, I did a forum search and nothing came up. I wasn't aware that this was old news. If someone can point me to those threads, I would be much obliged. I am interested in reading those threads.
