I am a hardcore jailbreaker so i feel what the jailbreakers feel, i have a question in my mind and i am sure that this question resides in your mind to.

Un Jailbroken Devices:  If you have an iOS device that is not jailbroken so you should update your device to iOS 5.1.1 there is nothing holding you back from updating and doing so will not result in any loss of data.

Jailbroken Devices: if you are already jailbroken on iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.1 what ever so updating your device to iOS 5.1.1 will let you lose your jailbreak, also you will stay few days without jailbreak until the release of the upcoming iOS 5.1.1 untethered jailbreak.

If you are not able to live without jailbreak i think that all you have to do now is to download iOS 5.1.1 firmware and wait until the release of iOS 5.1.1  untethered jailbreak.

The upcoming jailbreak will support the latest firmware iOS 5.1.1 untethered also it is confirmed by MuscleNerd that the upcoming iOS 5.1.1 untethered jailbreak will jailbreak the A5 devices (iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and the new iPad ) with Absinthe tool only While nothing has been said about A4 devices.
