It's easy, tap on Safari, type in jailbreakme.com & follow instructions, it literally takes seconds & won't harm your phone, also after that you'll be able to unlock it & put any
sim card in, also it's free

Jailbreakme.com only works for iOS 4.0.1 or below. iOS 4.0.2 & above incorporate the PDF exploit fix, which prevents the use of Jailbreakme.com.

For 4.1, you can use Geohot's Limera1n, or wait for the Chronic Dev Team's Greenpois0n.

Don't use limera1n. AFAIK limera1n doesn't work on 3G iPhones, only 3GS and up.

It's buggy as hell at the moment anyway for those with the right hardware.

limera1n, 6 months in the making
iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3G, iPad, iPhone 4, iPod Touch 4G
4.0-4.1 and beyond+++
limera1n is unpatchable
untethered thanks to jailbreakme star comex
released today to get chronicdev to do the right thing
brought to you by geohot
hacktivates
Mac coming soon
follow the instructions in the box, sadly limera1n isn't one click
that's the price of unpatchability
as usual, donations appreciated but not required
still in beta, pardon my ragged edges
AppleTV is technically supported, but theres no apps yet
zero pictures of my face

I jailbroke mine using this video. Not the easiest guide though and I almost had a heart attack as thought I had bricked my phone a couple of times (although I just restarted and everything was fine).

I would upgrade to 4.1 and jailbreak but I also need the carrier unlock, so I'm waiting.
