Only available for the iPhone 4S for now, with more device support planned. Both released roughly the same time, with the 4S coming out on October 2011, and iOS 5.1 on March 2012.
Older iPhones will probably be sought out by retro collectors in the future similar to how old game consoles and computers are collectible now. I remember when you couldn’t give away old DOS PCs and CRT monitors and now they are sought after by retro PC collectors. I could see the early skeuomorphic versions of iOS being sought after by collectors in the future. They’ll want to sideload old apps and tinker around with the OS which is a lot easier to do with a jailbreak.
