At today’s press event, Steve Jobs announced iLife ‘11. It’s got all the same apps in it, that means iDVD and iWeb haven’t been removed.

PwnageTool 4.1 Is A Go, Jailbreaks Apple TV Too
Great news, jailbreakers: PwangeTool 4.1 is out. It jailbreaks the new Apple TV as well.
Through a combination of the recently released geohot limera1n exploit comex’s recently released pf exploit, and our original pwnage2 exploit, PwnageTool 4.1 works on these devices at firmware 4.1:
- AppleTV 2G
- iPad (firmware 3.2.2)
- iPod touch 4G
- iPod touch 3G
- iPhone4
- iPhone 3GS
- iPhone 3G
PwnageTool allows you to restore to a custom IPSW file. For instance, you can restore to a pre-jailbroken firmware while simultaneously maintaining your current baseband (and thus your ultrasn0w carrier unlock). You can also add whatever packages you want in the “Expert” mode of PwnageTool, if you wish to pre-install Cydia packages. iPhone 3G users get the additional benefit of selecting their own boot and recovery logos, and features like multitasking and battery charge percentage.
PwnageTool’s main advantage to ramdisk-based methods (limera1n, greenpois0n, redsn0w) is for unlockers — those that need to keep their current baseband and preserve their ultrasn0w unlock. But in this new age of both bootrom- and userland-based exploits, its an excellent platform for continuing the jailbreak through all future firmwares.
Unlike previous rumors claimed, the iPad with 4.2 beta firmware is not supported. I guess the Dev Team will just wait for the GM release at this point.
