No. Look on eBay.

http://blog.iphone-dev.org/

just an update for everyone, the new iphone 3.1.3 firmware has just been released. no jailbreaks for the 3GS yet hopefully soon

Changes in 3.1.3

* improves accuracy of reported battery level on iPhone 3GS
* resolves issue where 3rd party apps would not launch in some instances
* fixes bug that may cause an app to crash when using the Japanese Kana keyboard

heres the guide in order to jailbreak for iphone users other than the 3GS

I'm trying to install 3.1.2 firmware on a 3GS that is currently running 3.1 using the "Shift + Restore / Update" method but I get an error message in iTunes that says "your device is not eligible for the requested build." This is apparently part of a new anti-jailbreaking campaign meaning that only the latest firmware versions can be installed on Apple devices.

Does anyone have any idea how to bypass this? I don't want 3.1.3 as you cannot jailbreak it, yet I'm having some issues with 3.1 that I want to get rid of.

Is this in terms of iTunes having internet access? Nope, haven't touched it..

I had the same error message on my laptop and I haven't had any issues with any prior updates.

3.1.2 is no longer signed.

Unless you did the cydia 'protect my phone' crap, you are stuck.

Although I haven't been involved in it for a little while...

3.1.3 is a waste of time for anyone considering it. Just fixes your battery percentage as some phones were showing that up incorrectly in 3.1.2.

I have a hunch that with iPad will come new firmware, which is why Dev team et al are all quiet on a 3.1.3 jailbreak.

I thought that may be the case.

I'm having issues with battery life: It died on me the other day at 4pm after being fully charged at 9am with less than 1 hour of use (rest was standby). I can actually watch the percentage go down while I'm surfing the web!

I wanted to charge it up fully and restore the phone to reset the battery software. Looks like I can't restore to 3.1 or 3.1.2 but there are so many threads about terrible battery life on 3.1.3 (ie: 3 hours of standby kills the battery) so I'm not keen on upgrading to that. They release flawed software but won't let you restore to the older software - knobs.
