Default Jailbreak for iPhone OS3 released

But only for the Mac unfortunately ....

Dev-Team Blog - trois, drei, ???, három!

(with hidden messages from the ever-present Stephen Fry apparently!)

"redsn0w" - Windows version out... and just worked fine on my 3G OS 3.0...

Very easy to do as well - even easier than using QuickPwn!

I'll pop over and have a peek, I *might* be picking up a 3GS later today, not sure if I'll jailbreak it right away though.

Stupid question time. If I jailbreak it then a full iTunes restore will remove the jailbreak, correct?

Thanks. It's moot point as a) I don't have a phone, and b) It seems that at present there is no jailbreak or unlock for the 3GS.

You using a PowerPC machine or intel? There's a blog post saying that on OS X there are some issues with the PPC version and to use an Intel machine until these issues are addressed.
