iPhone 3GS Jailbreak, Now Possible

Remember George Hotz, Here he goes again. The 20 year old hacker who originally cracked the iPhone firmware, has released a new jailbreaking application for the iPhone 3GS. The new application to jailbreak the iPhone 3GS is codenamed as "purplera1n." The application currently supports Windows-only excluding Windows 7.(windows 7 is not supported). For purplera1n you would require the latest iTunes installed, and an iPhone 3GS with the 3.0 firmware.

Hotz speaks in a blog post that purplera1n will suppport Mac soon. The iPhone Dev Team did release a unlock for 3.0 which did not work on the iPhone 3GS, but Hotz's version does (although it doesn't free you from your current carrier).

Hotz goes over the process of the jailbreaking on his blog:

Connect your iPhone normally. Click "make it ra1n". Wait. On bootup, run Freeze, the purplera1n installer app.

This is how the GUI of purplera1n looks like.
