Geohot's New Jailbreak to be Called Limera1n?


Domain registration records reveal that Geohot has registered the limera1n domain, according to Redmond Pie.

The domain whois record for both blackra1n and limera1n shares same record and confirms that it has been registered by geohot on March 27. Whois record also reveals that it was last updated on April 13, almost effectively the same date when geohot successfully jailbroke iPhone OS 4 which makes it even more authentic. Though there is no confirmation about this by geohot himself.

If you head over to the
site you will see a raindrop that looks just like the icon for blackra1n but with a lime color to it.

It's unclear if geohot plans to use the limera1n name for the
untethered 3.x jailbreaks or for OS 4.0.

Now the question is, is Limera1n the software which is going to jailbreak iPhone 3.1.3untethered for all the iDevices like iPhone, iPad and iPod touch?, or is it going to be the tool to jailbreak the new and upcoming iPhone OS 4?. My guess is on the later one. He is probably going to finish off iPhone 3.x jailbreak with blackra1n, and will use this new name for the next iPhone OS. What do you think? thoughts?
