Well, we said we wouldn't be releasing news about a 1.1.3 jailbreak again until something concrete was available. That was just a few hours ago, and that something concrete is already here. Earlier this afternoon, notable iPhone hacker Nate True released instructions on his blog on how to jailbreak 1.1.3. Like the 1.1.2 jailbreak, this latest version requires that you start with an already jailbroken phone of an earlier version.

As is typical with the iPhone rumor mill, things are starting to get out of control. Less than an hour ago, we brought you a recent piece of news/rumor that was spreading on the web which suggested that the iPhone jailbreak for 1.1.3 would be released either tonight or tomorrow.

iPhone 1.1.3 Jailbreak Supposedly Coming Tonight or Tomorrow

The latest word regarding the 1.1.3 jailbreak, out of iPhoneAtlas, suggests that a version will be released to the public as early as tonight or tomorrow.

Latest on the 1.1.3 Jailbreak - Coming Soon

Earlier this week, it was reported that an iPhone 1.1.3 jailbreak had been accomplished but would not be released.
