So we’ve been working hard on getting the release ready and during this process we’ve been fixing some final bugs, the actual base of PwnageTool application is working fine and working with all devices that we support. We’ve been restoring our devices to various firmware revisions so that we can try to reproduce the conditions that most users will have. We are able to fully install any applications on any part of the current devices running 2.0 (and b103) and these versions are the iPhone 114, iPhone 2.0, iPhone 3G.
Apple released an update (b103) just before we were about to release and that support had to be added to the current version, it is pointless to release something that doesn’t work on devices out of the box (we’ve been told new 3Gs will have this firmware), we don’t want drama, and we want to do as little support as possible, so we want to make it right the first time.
It was lucky that we delayed slightly as we discovered a bug that causes unexpected behavior when using AppStore and third party applications on the same device. We are working on fixing that bug now, we don’t anticipate it is a big one, it has some really odd side effects, causing WiFi dropouts and the loss of stored passwords for WiFi networks. Of course this is only a minor software issue, nothing like the horrible static MAC address that another “elite byte adjuster” forced upon their users.
So, currently (when released) PwnageTool 2.0 will support:-
iPhone (1st Gen) with 2.0 – Activated, Unlocked & Jailbroken, (with support for third party applications).
iPod Touch with 2.0 – Activated & Jailbroken, (with support for third party applications).
iPhone (3G) with 2.0 – Activated, Jailbroken (with support for third party applications).
We’ve made some progress on the baseband unlock of the 3G device, but at this point PwnageTool will not support 3G unlocking or BootNeuter on the 3G device. It is, of course supported on the first generation device with 2.0. We’ll push out an update with 3G support if and when it is completed.
As soon as we fix this up and test a bit more we’ll be ready for release, we’ll get back to you with a release schedule soon.
Please loosen that seatbelt slightly while our cabin crew serve you complimentary drinks.

It looks like even though the iPhoneDevTeam has officially unlocked the new iPhone 3G, they wont be supporting it with the forthcoming PwnageTool 2.0. This is essentially being done for 'your own good', as they want to make sure the code is 100% safe before they release it to the public. Check out the official statement:

There have been rumblings about a new game coming out of Bungie Studio's, and it looks like we finally have comfirmation about what that game will be. Recently, Bungie had a countdown set on their website to reveal a brand new project they've been working on for a while now. Unfortunately, their "publisher" (read: Microsoft), informed them that their exciting announcement was a no-go. Oddly enough, someone from Microsoft has apparently broken the news personally – Xbox Head of Business Don Mattrick. Thanks for the convenient slip of the tongue Don:

Yes for those of you who are wondering if i made a typo or not, 1.1.5 is out. Right now, it is unclear on what 1.1.5 brings to the iPod Tocuh/iPhone, but this firmware is for you if you haven't gotten 2.0. But becareful what you do, this firmware might not be jailbreakable and if it is some Jailbroken apps might not work. Download at your own risk.

 One w After spending 2 days with the much anticipated 2.0, I can’t even begin to think of why I even hesitated. 2.0 ads much anticipated features such as the App Store as well as the "Bulk Delete and Move" feature in the Mail section. What else? – Push Email, Calendar, and Contacts. So many big features were added that the little add-ons get over looked. Two of my favorite is the search while you type and now it displays the last digit you type in passwords (no more screw ups!). Yes, those are minor and seem unimportant, but they are nifty in getting things done on the go.
App Store: If apple has EVER done anything right then it is this. The app store works flawlessly and is a much needed improvement compared to the "Installer" app on Jailbroken iPods. No more soft reboots after every app you install is always a good thing. Yes, Apple does charge you for some apps, but a ton are great and even free.
Push Mail, Calendar, and Contacts: The Pricing of Mobile Me is a joke! $99…i think not. This proves Steve Jobs wants gold Toilet Seat. Instead, for email, I used Yahoo! Yahoo! has been doing push email since day one and it works (for some users…still reported bugs for other)!
Saving Pictures from the Web: One feature I missed most was not being able to save pictures off the internet. You would have to download it from your desktop and then sync it to your ipod. It actually took to long for my liking so that was something that was not done often in my house. Now Apple made things easier!
Bottom Line: Would I upgrade again and lose the Installer and the glory of Jailbroken?-Yes. I feel like I just bought a new ipod and I used it more in the past 2 days since the day I brought it home from the hospital…I mean circuit city. Also, knowing the 2.0 Jailbreaker is just around the corner, I can have the best of both worlds. Hit up the direct download link to get it for the iPhone, or the tutorial link if you would like to know how to get it for the touch.
