Be warned, this is beta stuff and we haven't been able to test it ourselves. However, a number of breathless tipsers and commenters are reporting a successful jailbreak and unlock of their iPhone 3GS. The magic begins with a 3GS jailbreak released by GeoHot. See, George is fed up with the Dev-Team's insistence on waiting until Apple releases 3.1. As he puts it:
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. It isn't worth waiting because you might have the "last" hole in the iPhone. What last hole...this isn't golf. I'll find a new one next week.
Meeeeow. After performing the jailbreak, ultras0w should then take care of the unlock although we haven't seen official comment on this by GeoHot or the Dev-Team yet. Good luck, backup, and kiss the children goodbye -- it could be a long weekend if you brick your new iPhone. Now hit HERE link if you must.

This time, however, the hacker claims that it makes no sense to wait for the release of firmware 3.1 because, despite this update Baseband making, in fact, programs for the release unusable, hackers will find some flaw certainly be used to their advantage to succeed to release the next operating system.
purplera1n does not need to be transformed into the torrent will download firmware and software to their release.
purplera1n seems to not work with Windows 7. It should, however, work well with Windows XP and Vista 32 and 64 bit. Geohot said it is working on the compatibility of the tool with Windows 7 and MAC.
