Sn0wBreeze, the unoffical port of the Dev Teams PwnageTool for Windows, has got it’s first video showing of how it works plus all the features it includes. In other words, they have finished it and it’s only a matter of time untill they release it!
The ETA of the application is mid-November. They have also added a FAQ on their website answering some of the questions their fans were asking:
1) What is sn0wbreeze?
sn0wbreeze is a port of PwnageTool to Windows, which was originally made for Mac OS X.

3) What devices does sn0wbreeze work for?
The iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3G[S] (Only if Jailbroken on 3.0), iPod Touch 1G, and iPod Touch 2G.
4) Will this jailbreak the 3G[S] running 3.1 (Out of the box)?
No, However! GeoHot did start a new project called “blackra1n” --> HERE
5) Will this Jailbreak the iPod Touch 2G running 3.1 (Out of the Box)?
No, Arm7 Exploit is gone, because the iPod Touch, wants a Signed iBSS.
6) Will sn0wbreeze Upgrade My Baseband?
No, infact, sn0wbreeze Will NOT even give you the option to permit a baseband upgrade!
7) What does sn0wbreeze exactly do?

Will this be For Mac/Linux Too?
There is already a Mac Version called “PwnageTool” (Which we are porting), and Why should there be a linux version? Theres no Linux iTunes! Damn Apple!
9) I’m Jailbroken on 3.0.1 by using redsn0w. Will sn0wbreeze work for me if I go to 3.1? Will I keep all of my Apps?
Yes, sn0wbreeze will upgrade you to 3.1 (Jailbroken), but, unfortunatly, when restoring it has to format everything because it has to re-partition the Phone (So you will need to re-install all your Apps).
10) Can I still use Unauthorized Internet Tethering on 3.1? (e.g AT&T)
You cannot use unauthorized Internet Tethering on 3.1, unless it is approved by your carrier. You can use third party software, such as: iModem when it is jailbroken!
