RedSn0w Jailbreak Will Work For iPhone OS 3.0.1

The iPhone Dev-Team has confirmed that it is safe to jailbreak iPhone OS 3.0.1 with the current release of RedSn0w

You can re-use redsn0w v0.8 we released a few weeks ago to jailbreak today's 3.0.1 update.  Just let iTunes update or restore you to official 3.0.1 then run redsn0w.  The only "trick" is that when redsn0w asks you to identify the IPSW used, point it at the 3.0 IPSW instead of the 3.0.1 one.   After the jailbreak, reinstall ultrasn0w 0.9 if you need the unlock.

The iPhone OS 3.0.1 update was release by Apple to fix a SMS flaw that allows hackers to take control of your iPhone. It is not functionally different.
