Correct me if I'm wrong, but you can connect your iPhone to iTunes and an update with come up. Click update and it will update your phone to 1.1.4. After the update, go to Ziphone.org and download the new 2.5 version. To make it more simple, go to youtube and search for ziphone or unlocking iPhone. There are plenty of guides that will show you how to you the Ziphone program. I currently did it on my girlfriends iPhone which she updated through iTunes and then I ran the Ziphone 2.5 which supports 1.1.4.

This is just my 2 cents. But please guys, if I forgot something please add in.
 
OK please guide me on how to do this... You mean Once I upgraded to 1.1.4 from itunes on my XP then my phone will be LOCKED.. Adter that "I WILL JUST GOP TO ZIPHONE.ORG" from my IPHONE and download the 2.5 version and install driectly????

This means - I will connect to my WIFI from iphone, browse, download and direct install - is that correct?? Please advise.. thanks...

Relax, it's easy.

1. Visit ZiPhone and download the app for your version of Windows. Install it and launch it, just to make sure things installed properly, then quit the app.
2. Connect your iPhone to your computer and iTunes should launch. Make sure it has a SIM card in it (i.e., AT&T or T-Mobile).
3. Do a restore and let it update to 1.1.4. This will take awhile, but less than 20 minutes usually. Once done, quit iTunes.
3. Launch ZiPhone again and let it do its thing (5 min or less).

Now you have an iPhone that is unlocked and jailbroken.
