We have already seen the new redsn0w jailbreak and ultrasn0w unlock for the iPhone 3G 3.0 OS now an exploit has been found for the iPhone 3GS that will allow it to be jailbroken and unlocked.

The exploit was discovered by Geohot (who discovered the iPhone 3G unlock), here’s what he had to say about it.

iPhone 3GS Jailbreak

On a personal note, I’m sad. Apple, it took me a week to break through your new defenses. And to let us reuse an exploit like that; 24kpwn was so 5 months ago. Although I imagine it must have been painful watching the devices roll by on the assembly line, knowing they all had a hole in them and you couldn’t fix it.

There is no word on when we will see the release of the unlock and jailbreak for the iPhone 3GS, but I suspect it wont be very long.
