Nitro is available in iOS 5.


Not in UIWebView for third-party apps, unless something has changed drastically. Nitro requires that the app be able to set the execute bit on arbitrary pages in memory. Third party apps can't be granted that privilege without essentially throwing the entire app approval process out the window.
