Dude, 3GS is rev 3. Rev 2 was 3G. Depends on what you call "rev 3" though...

Get the terminology straight... Jailbreak is not on the phone when you buy it, it's what you do to gain access to system files... Check the fourth and fifth digits in the serial number on the box - if it's 40 and higher, then you might be looking at the new bootrom.

Or rather, if it's 40 or above, you ARE looking at the new bootrom.
