You guys got the release notes slightly wrong. These notes about a closely matching simulator, Xcode, etc. are all left over from the 3.0 release - these are already implemented changes.
The real changes in 3.1 are few and subtle. I hope i'm not breaking my NDA by disclosing this, but here it goes: there are a few bugfixes, plus a new API for video capturing, and that's it - no other significant changes.
Honestly, I'm surprised this hasn't been there since day 1.
Perhaps it means that Apple is starting to see jailbreaking as a legitimate competitor to their app store, resulting in relaxing the restrictions on legit apps.
Who the hell am I kidding, this is Apple, they're just trying to maintain a draconian deathgrip on the iPhone.
@Shirkk: I was all for video cameras, until people began recorded movies in theatres with them! Now I refuse to purchase video-cameras while that is possible!
Yeah, that's a little strange. I would imagine it doesn't take more than Pandora does... does that mean Pandora is going away because AT&T wants people to pay for the data network but not use it?

who'd have ever thought that Apple would have another revenue avenue (rhyme for some reason?) by selling people SDKs. Weird

Over 3,000 apps have been cracked and ported.
Its horrible how much hard work is being pirated.
I was all for jailbreaking,
but while this cracked content is available to steal, im not going to support it.

You clearly misunderstand what jailbreaking is.
CLEARLY.
Pirated software is NOT = to jailbreak.
Its an effect of jailbreaking, not a cause.

And where did i say that pirated software = jailbreak...?
I think maybe you need to reread my post.
I will not support jailbreaking while all this software is being provided for free.
Im all for Apple closing its holes and making the devteam work another 6 months to crack it.
Keep in mind i know more about jailbreaking that you,
i was there in the beginning with firmware 1.0.1, spending hours manually jailbreaking my device. I was a tech support line to many iphone users.
