Ok, so as for the Jailbreak issue.... Its blatantly obvious it CAN be done. If any of you havent seen the video of the Dev Team UltraSn0wing 3.0, just watch this...

So if they can hack the new software into thinking it can transmit data through every known tariff... man, anythings possible.
You may also notice on the front screen of the 3.0 filled iPhone 3g has Terminal installed... a Jailbreak CMD feature

More evidence:
You can refresh all you want but that won't make the 3.0 update for your iPhone appear any faster. In fact, you might want to give your trigger finger a rest for a few hours -- Engadget bud, Richard Lai, noted in a tweet that Apple's Singapore site says that the iPhone OS 3.0 update will release on the 18th while Apple India says the 17th, the date announced by Apple -- the difference presumably accounting for the 2.5-hour timezone offset between the two countries. That would peg an OS 3.0 release anytime between 1700 and 1930 in London or between noon and 2:30pm in New York. But don't let a little knowledge ruin your obsessive behavior, where's the fun in that?
Update: The theory is supported by reports that carrier 3 in Hong Kong sent a network-wide SMS notifying iPhone owners that OS 3.0 will be available on June 18th, 01:00 local time. That's 1pm on the 17th in New York, 6pm in London, and 1900 in central Europe.

Just be quick or the servers will collapse and that'll be like another hour of waiting

Yes mate, there is an update for 2G, but it'll cost iirc. If it does cost, go to the apple forum I linked above in an earlier post and look through that thread as there's a link to the 3.0 firmware for 2G.
Possibly only 3 hours to go now

cFoster: Basically mate Jailbreaking is cracking the iPhones Operating System (OS) so that apps denied by apple can be installed on the system.... Theres loads more to it too, but is a pretty simple procedure, asllong as you can count to 10 and be clever with ya fingers when told to move them (you'll know what i mean when you do it!) Google is your best mate there anyways...
Zvhrst: Updating will give you all the other things.... but if you then jailbreak it, or even visit the standard app store, there are MMS apps to use. There always have been MMS apps... you just obviously havent looked

Sorry my mistake... 2G DO NOT PAY... it's iPod Touch Users that do. Sorry.
If you lot are running 2G's, arent you nearing the end of your contract and eligible for an upgrade? iPhone 3GS comes out friday with all this 3.0 included, plus much more!!
Tethering is a way of connecting your laptop or computer, or handheld internet device to your iphones internet connection. So if say you were in the middle of a show and wanted to connect a laptop (lol, like ya do) then you could connect to your iphone's 3G/edge connection..... o2 are charging for this feature... yet jailbreak phones, again, have been doing this for ages - for free!

is yours a downloaded 3.0 then Richard? if so, things may change when syncing with iTunes 8.2 later on. No-one knows what last minute changes Apple could make before release.
Im actually gonna miss the 6pm download (if it is 6pm) as im off out on a mission lol, so after all this, im gonna have to wait

not bothered about jailbreak at the moment, wonder if it will still be unlocked after the upgrade?
Doubt it..
Anyone got an FTP/HTTP link the the IPSW file?
