Greenpois0n iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak coming your way...

The Tweet

A tweet by @p0sixninja says that the Greenpois0n will be updated to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 within the next couple of days. Sadly, this is not going to be an untethered jailbreak. The good news is it will be a tethered or semi tethered jailbreak. Semi-tethered should be enough to entice those discouraged by a tethered jailbreak. 

What is a Semi-Tethered jailbreak?

Contrary to an untethered jailbreak that you can turn your phone on and off without any problems a semi-tethered jailbreak will allow you turn your phone on but you will not be able to use or launch any jailbreak tweaks, themes or applications.  This is also contrasted to a tethered jailbreak that will not allow you to use your device at all until you rerun the jailbreaking software on your computer if you reboot.
