RedSn0w Updated To 0.9.8b3 To Jailbreak iOS 4.3.4
0MuscleNerd (@MuscleNerd) has recently tweeted that the iPhone Dev-Team has released the third beta of RedSn0w for the recently released iOS 4.3.4 / iOS 4.2.9.
redsn0w b3 http://is.gd/6eek4Y is a *tethered* 4.3.4 JB for kernel hackers only (see #3). Most should stay back at 4.3.3!
This version of RedSn0w is for kernal hackers only. There is NO reason for an average user to update to iOS 4.3.4 and use this jailbreak as of right now.

Apple Releases iOS 4.3.4 – Patches PDF Vulnerability
1Apple recently seeded iOS 4.3.4 for its iOS devices including the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad 2, iPad, and 3rd and 4th generation iPod Touch devices. Apple also release a comparable update for Verizon Wireless’ CDMA iPhone 4, iOS 4.2.9.
These new builds include a security update that addresses the vulnerability with PDF files. This directly patches the extremely popular JailbreakMe.com jailbreak solution, which was by far the easiest way to jailbreak iOS devices. JailbreakMe will no longer function on devices running the newer firmwares, which are available now on iTunes.
