So let’s say you wanted to JailBreak your iPhone or iPod Touch over the past few weeks since the release of the first 1.1.1 JailBreak. It was a fairly lengthy process, and depending on when you got up the nerve to try it, required a decent chunk of time on the command line interface.

Well now its as easy as navigating, on a wifi connection, and in Safari, to jailbreakme.com and clicking “Install AppSnapp” at the bottom. That’s it, no PC required; it makes use of the TIFF exploit and then goes to work.

It will activate your device if its not already activated, then it will JailBreak it, and then it will install Installer version 3. Now the fact that a website can crash Safari and then gain root access to your iPhone or iPod Touch is kind of scary, so at the end of the whole process they go ahead and install a patch for the TIFF exploit so that until you restore your device, you are no longer vulnerable to the TIFF exploit.
