The first jailbreak application for the iPhone 3GS has been released by premier iPhone hacker George Hotz. Yes by the same guy who you may remember unlocked the first iPhone too.
The software is named “purplera1n,” and it is availabe for windows only, not Mac, and not Windows 7. Hotz says a jailbreak for Mac is “coming shortly.” Hotz’s application requires an iPhone 3GS running the 3.0 OS, and the latest version of iTunes — 8.2. Once the hack is applied, your 3GS will become unlocked, but you will still be tied to your carrier.
The unlocking tool is in beta version so please make sure that you have backed up all your important data before attempting this jailbreak. Hotz has released his purplera1n solution because the iPhone Dev Team have decided to wait. In his blog post Hotz says:
Normally I don’t make tools for the general public, and rather wait for the dev team to do it. But guys, whats up with waiting until 3.1? That isn’t how the game is played. We release, Apple fixes, we find new holes.Anways, jailbreak software can be downloaded from here, try it and don't be ashamed about posting comments,
HappY SurfinG!!! (:
