Well lookie what we have here, iPod Touch owners. As exciting as the upcoming 3.0 OS is, and as much as we know you can’t wait to pay for it while iPhone users get it for free, we all know that most of the desirable capabilities brought about by 3.0 are already available — if you jailbreak. We’ve been waiting for quite some time and just a a short while ago, the Dev Team dropped the bomb. Redsn0w… Beta… Is ready. Oh and the best part? Windows, Linux and OS X are all covered with this first beta release. Ok, we’ll shut up now and let you get to it. As always, let us know how it goes in the comments section.

    Already did the tethered JD using Cywood in Feb and the un-tethered JB using QuickFreedom a few weeks ago so won’t be using Redsnow until I need to do a restore which hopefully will not be for a while.

    Ok…I just kidding! I hate it when people do that “first” crap. So damn stupid! Well, about this post – I like and I’m just waiting for iPhone 3 to come out and I will go from there.

    It would be helpful if you actually said what you were talking about.

    Somebody released something. Woo hoo.

    (I looked into it so I now know what redsnow is, but no thanks to this post).

    UPDATE

    The redsn0w site is now displaying the correct links, the error with the Windows package has been corrected and the torrent file has been updated. Windows users should download the torrent again to ensure that you have the correct version.

    I bought a 32GB Touch two weeks ago. Should I return it and wait for the next gen model?
