Dev-Team Jailbreaks iPhone OS 3.1.3 Update

Five days after Apple released the 3.1.3 iPhone OS update the Dev-Team has countered with PwnageTool version 3.1.5, making a jailbreak of the latest firmware possible. This software currently only runs on Mac OS X, and works by updating your firmware to 3.1.3 with a custom IPSW file.

Dev-Team also reports that unless you have a problem with the reporting of your battery percentage, there's probably no good reason to update.
