Let it sn0w

The iPod/iPhone 3G jailbreak is out. The iphone-dev team just released the 24kpwn LLB patch to allow for a persistent jailbreak. The team had been hanging on to this patch because there was the possibility the exploit could be used on future iPhone versions. Unfortunately, a group started selling the code, so the team was forced to release it for free. There is a tutorial available for updating a factory reset iPod/iPhone (backup link).

That means the same sort of technique can be used with the current redsn0w tool to jailbreak and unlock the iPhone 3GS.

Let it ultrasn0w....
