Despite purplera1n’s release not too long ago, the iPhone Dev Team has gone ahead and released their own version of an iPhone 3GS jailbreak entitled redsn0w.

Redsn0w 0.8 is reportedly “a stable jailbreak (unlike purplera1n)” so users who were having problems with GeoHot’s jailbreak might want to check this one out.

You can head over to the iPhone Download Blog for a tutorial on how to use redsn0w. Remember, proceed at your own risk.

It seems that the iPhone DevTeam has gone ahead and announced that they will be delaying the release of an iPhone 3GS jailbreak for a short amount of time.

Their reason being is that the exploit they are currently using to jailbreak the phone is extremely easy for Apple to fix, if/when they find out about it. Futhermore, they have reported some problems with jailbreaking OS 3.0 that they have to work out along with their hunch that OS 3.0.1 is right around the corner.

So, before you freak out know that this delay is only temporary and you should be able to have you iPhone 3GS up and running on (almost) any carrier you want soon enough.
