I just got my iPhone 3GS 8GB replaced at the Apple store. I immediately jailbroke when I got home. I noticed that cydia reports that there are SHSH blobs stored for iOS 4.2.1 and 4.3b1. Does that mean that the person who previously had this phone (assuming it is a refurb) was a dev who got iOS 4.3b1 on it and then jailbroke? Screenshot to follow, sorry I am syncing apps to my iPhone.
 
Here's proof. It is running 4.2.1, not 4.3b1. I had my previous iPhone 3G S on 4.2.1, never on 4.3b1...

Edit: Could this be a feature of Greenpois0n rc6?
 
Apple replaced that iPhone because of issues with the SIM card and display. So now on this iPhone, it has SHSH blobs stored for 4.1 and 4.2.1 according to TinyUmbrella. According to Cydia, "My device has a pending TSS request."
 
Saving hashes has nothing to do with the firmware version installed on the phone, only with those firmware versions Apple is signing.

And once you instruct Cydia to begin saving hashes, it auto saves the hashes for all subsequent firmware versions.

Although I must say, I've not seen another iDevice with 4.3b1 hashes, only 4.3b2 and 4.3b3 hashes.

So 4.3b1 SHSH blobs are uncommon? Does this prove that it is a refurbished iPhone, and the previous owner was a developer who had access to 4.3b1 who is also a jailbreaker?
