New Bootroom jailbreak?

There are rumours going around the internet that there will be a new bootroom jailbreak for all iOS devices.

A bootroom jailbreak is a jailbreak that you have to do with your device powered off, for example redsn0w. A userland jailbreak is a jailbreak with the device on like Spirit or Star (jailbreakme.com).
The exploit was found on the day iOS 4.1 was released by p0sixninja and pod2g.

The good thing about this exploit is that it works on all devices and will support all future firmwares. To patch this exploit, Apple will need to make hardware modifications.

It is yet unknown if this jailbreak is tethered or untethered (What is tethered and untethered?).
