This allows the users to jailbreak their iPhone 3GS running iPhone OS 3.0. Here is our step-by-step guide to jailbreak your iPhone 3GS using purplera1n for Windows users.
Before we start some important points:

- This one is only for iPhone 3GS users, if you are an iPhone 3G users, please checkout our step-by-step guide to jailbreak iPhone 3G running iPhone OS 3.0 for Windows or this one for Mac users.
- Jailbreak apps like WinterBoard, VOiPOver3G etc don't seem to be working on iPhone 3GS, so you might have to wait for the developers to release updated version of the jailbreak apps.
