Step Five
Connect your iPhone to the computer via USB cable, make sure iTunes detects it, and then close any iTunes processes that start. Then in the quickpwn folder double click either iPhone 2G.bat , iPod touch.bat , or iPhone 3g.bat depending on which device you are using.
If prompted click the Run button to launch the batch file.
Step Six
You will then be asked to power off your iPhone and press Enter once it has been turned off.
Step Seven
QuickPwn will now help you put your iPhone in DFU Mode. Read through the instructions so you know whats ahead then type in y and press Enter. As an alternative you can put the iPhone into DFU mode yourself using these directions then press Enter: Open iTunes and connect the iPhone to your Mac or PC. Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time. After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.The iPhone screen will remain black like this:

NOTE***: It may take a few attempts to get your iPhone into DFU mode. Generally, I hold down both buttons then release the Home button just before I think the Apple logo would appear. If you are still holding both buttons down and you see the Apple logo you are holding them down for too long

Step Eight
First you will be asked to hold down the Power button for 5 seconds. Then you will have to also hold down the Home button for 10 seconds without letting go of the Power button. At the end of 10 seconds you will need to release only the Power button.

Step Eleven
After a few seconds of holding down just the Home button QuickPwn will detect the DFU mode and start performing operations.

After 8 operations are performed QuickPwn will ask you to "Please wait while your iPhone is Jailbroken". You can press any key to close the command prompt window.

Your iPhone will display a turning wheel and in a few minutes will be jailbroken! If you have a 2G iPhone and would like to unlock simply install and run BootNeuter from Cydia.

Zibri is speaking out regarding QuickPwn and suggests that the iPhone Dev-Team is stealing his idea.

Let me tell you something about the columbus egg and quickpwn.

Quickpwn works exactly on the same principle of ZiPhone:
it creates a ramdisk and executes it.
In the crafted ramdisk a patcher modifies the OS for activation.
It's conceptually a good work (ZiPhone was indeed a good work).
I am glad dev team abandoned their pwn to switch to a ZiPhone like program.
Now who is the idea stealer here ?

Anyhow, enough with drama.
My new "egg" idea has nothing to do with all this.
And I don't even know if I will ever release it.
For now (as it happened with ZiPhone) I am using it and testing it.

Nate True has released Dock 3.0 for quick application switching in the iPhone 2.0 firmware.

Dock Features:
- Sorts apps by categories, making large amounts of apps easy to manage
- Imports Favorites entries from Phone with pictures, into the "Speed Dial" category
- Can be disabled in specific applications
- Has a Prefs app that lets you quickly categorize apps the way you want them

To use, install from Cydia (props to Shaun Erickson for packaging), and reboot your phone. The yellow line across the bottom of your screen shows you that Dock is active. Now slide your finger up from the bottom of the screen, slowly. Dock will activate and you can select a category. Then move your finger further up the screen to select an app. Let go to launch, or slide back down to cancel.
