http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/cydia-ios6-10-15-12-02.jpg (http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/15/ios-6-tethered-jailbreak-now-with-cydia/)The iPhone Dev-Team has just outed a new version of Redsnow that opens up iOS 6 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/18/ios-6-review/) to an official version of the sinful, definitely-not-Apple Cydia (http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/03/cydia-1-1-unleashed-performance-improvements-abound/) store, but you'll still have to be tethered to use it. The process is now simpler, as the latest version recognizes your already-installed iOS 6 OS and installs only the necessary jailbreak files, and Cydia is now installed automatically as well -- rather than needing a complex workaround like the last version (http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/20/ios-6-jailbreak-a4-devices/). If you're willing to put up with the tethering and have an A4-powered iPhone 4, 3GS or gen-4 iPod touch device, the laundry list of how to do it is at the source below -- but there's always the risk of bricking, so caveat emptor, of course.
