It'll be jailbroken right away, but it'll be a tethered jailbreak for everything except the old bootrom 3Gs. The iPad 2 and iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5 will not be jailbroken right away.

We'll definitely see tethered first. I really hope the iPhone 5 isn't hard to jailbreak like the iPad 2. :(

The betas have already been jailbroken (tethered), so the answer to this is obviously yes.

The "answer is obviously yes" for current A-4 devices, because limera1n has pwned them for life. iPhone 5 - different story

Its a different story only because we don't know how it will be jailbroken on the next gen iPhone. It WILL be jailbroken though, the only question is how long with it take?

edit: My guess is iOS5 on the next gen iPhone/iPad will be jailbroken in less than a week after release. ;) 2-3 days is my gut feeling.
