Apple TV 2G jailbreak is successful using the popular SHAtter exploit. It was very much expected as there were news that SHAtter could also work to jailbreak Apple TV 2G since it runs iOS 4.1. Here is the image of jailbroken Apple TV 2G posted by MuscleNerd:

It’s still not confirmed if Apple TV will run apps or not. Apple TV jailbreak will be really useful if it runs apps. Stay tuned for more.

Update: And here is the video:

Dev Team also added:

It’s confirmed…SHAtter can trick Apple’s new AppleTV 2G into restoring to a pre-jailbroken IPSW from PwnageTool too! Literally the only UI application on the ATV is Lowtide.app, but now the window is open for jailbroken apps of all varieties. (Just like the early iPhone days, the only apps you’ll see on the AppleTV will be jailbroken ones). In the meantime, here’s a video showing root access (via ssh) into Apple’s new product.

SHAtter exploit by Pod2G is going to jailbreak Apple TV on iOS 4.1. Now when it’s confirmed that Apple TV will run iOS 4.1 firmware, iPhone Dev Team have confirmed that it would be possible to jailbreak Apple TV with SHAtter exploit. Here is excerpt from an update posted on the Dev Team blog:

It’s looking like SHAtter is going to be the gift that keeps on giving.  Even though the new AppleTV isn’t yet in people’s homes, the firmware is available on Apple’s normal public distribution servers and SHAtter has been used to decrypt its keys!  The main filesystem (“Mojave8M89.K66OS”) key for 018-8609-066.dmg is:

According to a report by DigiTimes, Apple may released CDMA iPhone, 7 Inch iPad and an updated version of Apple TV with iOS in first quarter of 2011. Apart from rumors for Verizon iPhone being the CDMA version, will also feature metal back. Apple TV will also feature iOS hence becoming a part of iOS family alongside iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. Moreover, iPad may be upgraded to 9.7 and 7 inch versions with 512 MB RAM and ARM Cortex-A9 processors.

Here is the report from DigiTimes:

Apple is set launch an upgraded 9.7-inch iPad adopting a new ARM Cortex-A9-based processor and 512MB RAM in the first quarter of 2011. Meanwhile, the company will also launch a 7-inch iPad using the Cortex-A9 processor and an IPS panel with a resolution of 1024×768, according to Digitimes Research senior analyst Mingchi Kuo.

As for the CDMA iPhone, Pegatron Technology is expected to start mass production in December and will supply to both US-based Verizon Wireless and China-based China Telecom. The CDMA iPhone’s back plate will be forged from metal materials and will feature an integrated antenna, according to Digitimes Research.

Verizon is expected to announce the product at CES 2011 and will start shipping in January 2011. The sales ratio of GSM and CDMA iPhones in 2011 is expected to reach 65:35, Digitimes Research out.

In addition, Apple is also set to launch a new Apple TV using AMD’s Fusion solution and will not include a hard drive. The new device will adopt a user interface similar to the iPhone with support for social networking websites, network multimedia and the App Store. Mass production of the device will start in December, Digitimes Research noted.
