The Dev-Team Blog was just updated with a new redsn0w version 0.9.6b4
jailbreak (based on Geohot's Limera1n bootrom exploit) for iOS 4.2.1.
Unfortunately, iOS device owners won't find jailbreaking as easy as
navigating to a website. And the 4.2.1 jailbreak is currently
"tethered" so owners of the iPhone 4, iPad, and newer iPhone 3GS and
iPod touch models will have to reattach to a PC or Mac to boot into a
jailbroken state each time your device loses power or needs a reboot.
Those of you who rely on the ultrasn0w unlock should hold off for now
-- good advice for anyone not comfortable with terms like "SHSH blobs"
or "Cydia." Everyone else can hit up the link below with a detailed
how-to provided by Redmond Pie.
