In the world of old school jailbreaking, the iPhone 3GS and the original iPod touch, both have gotten new jailbreak updates. Here’s everything you need to know.

South Korean carrier SK Telink has a warehouse full of boxed iPhone 3GS handsets that it needs to shift, and so it is offering the 9-year-old handset for sale.

Alloc8 bootrom level exploit for untethered jailbreak of iPhone 3GS with new bootrom has been released. Here are the details on it.

The much anticipated update to The iPhone Dev Team’s Redsn0w jailbreak utility brought a ton of features. The updates attached to the revision are probably a lot more notable than most of us would have imagined with one of the new features allowing iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS users to block the baseband update that would generally come attached to updating the firmware on the device. This is great news for owners of one of those two devices who want to experience all that a new version of iOS has to offer without losing a software based unlock on their current baseband.

Apple has put us all out of our smartphone related misery and finally announced the details of the sixth-generation iPhone, and is dubbed the iPhone 5. After months of intense speculation surrounding the multiple leaked parts and component images that have been flying around the net, Tim Cook and his team have finally lifted the lid on the smartphone that they hope will lead them into the new year in the top spot. Many of the new iPhone’s included features are in line with what we expected, although as always Apple have managed to slip in a few little additions.

British newspaper TheTelegraph believes Apple is about to cease the sale of the iPhone 3GS when the iPhone 5 is introduced to the fray, instead retailing an 8GB version of the iPhone 4S, which is currently sold in 16, 32 and 64GB configurations.

With only twelve days to go before Apple is rumored to be announcing its next iPhone, it just wouldn’t be right if we had a whole day without any coverage of the device, dubbed the iPhone 5, and like so many of the recent leaks, this one arrives courtesy of the French blog Nowhereelse.fr. The source of most next-gen iPhone bits and pieces, today sees a side-by-side comparison of the iPhone 5 and the iPhone 4S, and even though we were under no illusions the new device was longer than its predecessor, the image certainly puts things into perspective.

The long-serving iPhone 3GS looked initially as though it might be left out in the cold somewhat with iOS 6, but if the latest iOS 6 beta 3 is anything to go by, the Cupertino company is determined to give the ageing device as much support as its possibly can.

On Monday, the world got its first look at iOS 6 after it was officially announced by Apple at this year’s WWDC event, and of all the features anticipated and discovered, the replacement of Google Maps with the new, Cupertino-engineered offering was easily one of the most exciting.

One of the biggest reasons why people jailbreak their iPhone is to get it unlocked for use on unauthorized wireless networks. Although there are other unlocking solutions available, Ultrasn0w is the de-facto standard when it comes down to it because of one very simple reason: it’s stupid-easy to unlock an iPhone with it (unlike Gevey SIM), At least for an iPhone with a supported baseband.

Despite the premium price bracket, Apple’s iPhone range has now grown to become the third-biggest in terms of shipments and market share.

Blog posts have been flying around the internet for the last few days since the release of Redsn0w 0.9.9b9 which included a footnote advising users the newest iteration of the Ultrasn0w unlock (version 1.2.5) would be released this coming Monday via the official repository in Cydia.
