Is there a jailbreak coming out for IOS 7.1 I'm really wanting to jailbreak again I miss my bite sms
 
JBing funny like that.. iOS 7.1 comes out they say lets wait for 8. When iOS 8 they will say why didn't that wait for 8.1.. Makes no sense to me.

because they want to see if the exploits still work before burning them?
Doesn't make sense to release an iOS 7.1 jb months before ios 7.1 actually comes out, gives apple a chance to fix it and then everyone is boned.
Likewise now that 7.1 is out they obviously have some exploits still left that may appear in iOS 8, so rather than risk the 7.1 jb they wait for iOS 8

Wait for 8 or 8.1? Why waste exploits on 8 when 8.1 will only be a few months later? Of course why waste exploits on 8.1 when 9 will be right around the corner?

Everyone was mad when they JB 7.0.4 (including me) saying they should have waited for 7.1. So with that thought process it would be a waste to use exploits on 8.0.

Its a never ending battle. I think a lot more people would be content with a 7.1 JB most wont jump to 8 when its released.

I think there's a difference between iOS 7.1 and iOS 8.0 so I don't think it's a good analogy to use

iOS 7 to iOS 8 is a bigger leap than iOS 7.0.6 to 7.1

Isn't that pretty much exactly what they did with 7.1 though?

i thought they released it while the 7.1 betas were going on and it didn't work or they had to burn another exploit

Right before iOS 7.1 was actually released, giving Apple time to patch things up.
