Beta 3.0 Jailbreak released 'unofficially'

[BobSeager]

I wouldn't recommend anyone update to 3.0, but if you must...

Russian hacker Vortex has released a beta version of a 3.0 Jailbreak (supporting firmware 3.0 beta 2 only). It is packaged in the Dev Team's windows Quickpwn software and reportedly works on the iPhone 1st gen, iPhone 3g, and iPod Touch 1st gen. It unfortunately does not install Cydia instead it only installs Icy. However you can install SSH via Icy and then install Cydia manually . On the plus side the download is only 3.2 mb because it is only packaged with Icy. Also to note not all jailbreak apps work with this right now because it is not fully finished. Some work, some don't.

Is the 3.0 firmware officially out? I thought it was still in beta as of right now.

sorry for the confusion (topic title edited)

It's still in beta, this jailbreak supports only 3.0 beta release 2

The official 3.0 will be out in summer

Yeah, thats what I thought, LOL. Sorry bout that, I didn't see the only supports part. I need to read a lil more slowly.
