No, I always thought that if you updated the 3GS to 3.1.3 you'd lose untethered JB as it updated the Bootrom - am I missing something?

Look at sherif_hashim twitter, it said week of 22-28 of June, it'll probably move up.
How 'bout you just tell us what it says since not all of us know the irc server channel details?
I'm not saying you're wrong, it sounds like might not be, I just like information.

exact quote from the header on the page>>Spirit is *not* on scheduled release for Friday
Well so far everything on Comex's twitter page still point to Friday... I just hope its true... been waiting patiently for this ever since I bought my New Bootrom 3GS of doom
ya. wtf i go to work this morning and learn that the jailbreak ive been waitiing is confirmed for tomorrow, and now people are saying no?!!!??!?!
Nope, the bootrom can only be programmed or updated during the manufacturing process.
Not thru iTunes.
I still think the Spirit will be released tommorow. I still wont try it, because it seems kinda risky.
I hope it does =/ and hell I don't care how risky it is, ive been waitin too long lol
If it were to be released tommorow, where would the official download page be? like does Comex have an official website kind of like geohot's jailbreaks
hmm... I guess I'll just have to follow twitter very closesly tommorow.
I hate how you follow something so closely and check every 5 seconsds, and find out and the end of the day that it wasn't coming today. Oh Well!!!

Yeah I know what you mean
we can only hope this ONE time... I even followed thunderst0rm only to a useless program with graphics -_-I'll be using my work computer ^.^
By the way... If you're already jailbroken on 3.1 onwards... there's no point in upgrading just because Spirit is out.
Best practice is to stay at the lower basebands unless you really NEED to upgrade so you can run some special App. I haven't encountered that as an issue yet.

The irc channel does have "Spirit is *not* on scheduled release for Friday" set as the topic. There are quite a few recognizable names from the scene in the channel. So either it's officially true or they officially want people to shut up about it; I am not familiar enough with the JB community to know which it might be.
hmmm... I hope thats just false =/ but I wouldn't mind waiting a few more days if thats the case since ive gone this far. Lets see what happens.
Ok, one last question, can I update to standard 3.1.3 then redsn0w? Officially unlocked so baseband not a issue...
