iPhone 3GS Jailbreak Software Delayed by Dev Team
The iPhone Blog —

Dev Team Delays the Release of the iPhone 3GS Jailbreak
iPhone Download Blog —
As I predicted in a post I wrote earlier today about the future iPhone 3GS jailbreak, the Dev Team officially announced that it will hold on on the release of the iPhone 3GS jailbreak.
The reason is simple. Apple is most likely coming up with 3.0.1 firmware very soon. Releasing the jailbreak would basically allow Apple to figure out what exploit the Dev Team used to jailbreak the 3GS and fix it.
Once the jailbreak is out, Apple will fix the iBoot-family bug we use to accomplish it. They will simply stop signing the old ...
Dev-Team has iPhone 3GS jailbreak--but the wait continues
Boing Boing Gadgets —
... "We can jailbreak the 3GS right now," writes an anonymous developer at the iPhone-dev.org blog. "But making our jailbreak public at this point in time would benefit relatively few people. It would in fact be detrimental to many more people than it would help. So we feel it's best to keep our version of the jailbreak out of Apple's sights for the time being." ...
iPhone 3GS jailbreak ready but not ready for mass consumption
Tech Ticker —
... the exploit a couple of days back, they managed to jailbreak the device. However, don’t get your hopes high to get this solution anytime soon because they are holding it back to keep Apple off the exploit that could enable them to patch and close the jailbreak exploit forever. Though iPhone-Dev’s reasoning is sound, I don’t think it would take much time for Apple to patch and end the cat and mouse game once and for all.

iPhone 3GS jailbreak delayed: release date unknown
SlashGear —
The iPhone Dev Team have announced that they are delaying the release of the updated ultrasn0w iPhone 3GS jailbreaking and unlocking tool. In a post on the Team’s blog, they detail the nature of the exploit used to jailbreak (and then unlock) the 3GS, a loophole which Apple could readily close once it was made public.
“Here’s the critical point, the reason why we’re delaying our version of the jailbreak: Once the jailbreak is out, Apple will fix the iBoot-family bug we use to accomplish it. They ...

... update, which is not expected until sometime in July.“We’re going to wait and see what 3.0.1 brings before figuring out the release date for our version of the jailbreak.” Overall, I understand the reasoning, however at the same time I am a little disappointed if for nothing else than I am being a little selfish and missing my jailbroken apps.

iPhone 3G S Jailbreak Ready - But you’re not allowed it yet
Gadget Venue —
... The iPhone 3G S has been cracked now by the Dev Team. However, they have decided not to release it just yet. There is a good reason for this though which is they are expecting Apple to release a 3G S update sooner rather then later to fix a few bugs. If the Dev Team let the hack out in to the open then Apple will use it to fix this upcoming update, thus blocking all new iPhone 3G S users from having their iPhone 3G S jailbreak capable. ...

Obsessable News Feed —
... The iPhone Dev Team hacker group has successfully managed to jailbreak the iPhone 3GS so that users can install 3rd party software on the device and access parts of the iPhone 3GS's operations that Apple normally keeps walled off. However, the Dev Team is not releasing the jailbreak at this time for fears that Apple would easily patch the exploit they are using to gain access to the device and waiting longer will mean more exploitable iPhone 3GSs available in the wild. ...

iPhone 3GS jailbreak delayed by Dev Team; patience, young grasshoppers
Boy Genius Report —
History shows us the Dev Team always works with the quickness, but this time the folks who have unleashed a world of new functionality for the iPhone are slowing things down. Before you fall flat on your back and start kicking and flailing around, know that there are very good reasons for the iPhone 3GS jailbreak delay. In a nutshell, not enough people have the 3GS in hand yet according to the Dev Team, and the exploit it attacks to jailbreak the iPhone 3GS is volatile — Apple is going to have a very easy time plugging the hole. Because there are a ...
Users angry that Dev Team won’t release the 3GS unlock/jailbreak
CrunchGear —
... The Interweb is a tizzy over the 3GS unlock/jailbreak and the Dev Teams decision not to release it until there is a new firmware update immanent. Why would they do this? Well, if they release now, Apple can close the hole with the new release, something they’d be loathe to do if the unlock happened closer to launch. While this isn’t very nice, it’s amazingly practical and forward thinking. ...
