Guys... give them a little time.

look at this video on nitotv twitter feed http://nitosoft.com/ATV2/gp/slick_pois0n.mov
shows it working.

that movie doesn't show what iOS version it's running.

could possibly be running the older 4.1, since they a earlier version of Greenpois0n to JB it.

from another forum (not me, another user):

"NitoSoft has tweeted (after that .mov link) that RC5 was not ready for ATV2, to be patient it would be ready soon - the movie shows that it's possible, but needs a tweak to work."
