New untethered jailbreak!

As of today, May 2, there is now an untethered jailbreak for iPhones, iPod Touches, and iPads that are running 3.1.2, 3.1.3, and 3.2 firmware ( see my "3GS bootrom issue" post for an explanation of a tethered jailbreak ).

This jailbreak is NOT an unlock, there is still not an unlock for 3.1.3 firmware. Note, though, that if you are on 3.1.2 firmware your iPhone can be unlocked.

In order to successfully jailbreak your device with the new software the following conditions must exist :

- Your device must not currently be jailbroken ( it will have to be restored to remove the existing jailbreak ).

- Your device must be on firmware 3.1.2, 3.1.3, or 3.2

- Your device MUST BE activated and not stuck on the Connect to iTunes or Emergency Call screen
