The Apple TV 5.2 untethered jailbreak is now available with SeasOnPass, which will free the second generation Apple TV according to GottaBeMobile.com.
The jailbreak allows the Apple TV to do more on the latest version 5.2 released last month with Bluetooth Keyboard support and a number of new features. The jailbreak is free available for Windows and Mac.

The full list of changes according to FireCore includes:
- Added support for Apple TV 5.2 and Bluetooth keyboards
- Minor improvements to backups
- Minor improvements to DVD playback
- A handful of other bug fixes and improvements
How To Update Your TV?

2. Run the latest version of SeasOnPass to update the Apple TV to 5.2.
3. Download and stall the new 2.2 version of a TV Flash (black).

FireCore does warn interested users that they may want to consider waiting on upgrading depending on how they'll be using their jailbroken TV. A note at the end of their update explains that some third party plugins like Plex, Remote HD, Rowmote and XBMC are not compatible with 5.1+ Apple TV Software.
