I suspect the Dev Team is still sitting on another exploit that will allow them to jailbreak in the future. They just don't want to burn it on 3.1.3, which adds no new features. If they release a new jailbreak method now, Apple will simply patch the exploit before the release of the new iPhone and OS 4.0. That being said, jailbreak may end up dying because Apple adds features with each new version of the OS that were previously only available to jailbreaks. As time goes on, jailbreaking may simply become unnecessary. And speaking of dying, what's up with this site. It is almost never updated anymore. I’m not sure I agree that jailbreak is dead.

Nobody will be jailbroken very soon, unless, of course they cling to 3.1.2 with the old bootrom, I might add. I feel for you, but in the end, you’re the same as the rest of the world.

I look at these reports here and all I can say is ho hum. The next really big firmware update will be the only big news. As it is now, Cydia and jailbreaking are reserved for users who have stayed with 3.1.2. How long do you think they'll stay with it? Will they stay with it when OS 4.0 is released? Is jailbreaking so important that upgrades that inclues a UI change, multi-tasking and a lot more would be ignored. A few will stay with 3.1.2, but in the end, the writing appears to be on the wall for all of us jailbreakers. The Dev team is in seclusion. GeoHot has retreated.
