Hang onto your Jailbreak, CNet France are reporting that this Saturday will see Apple release the latest firmware upgrade for the iPod Touch and iPhone.  Expected to be v1.1.3, a weekend release would make it around a month since the last update (that added international keyboard languages, among other things, to the iPhone just prior to its European launch), a reasonable length of time for what are suspected to be well-requested feature additions.  The consensus appears to be that voice recording software and the facility to use the iPod Touch (and iPhone) in disk mode as a portable hard-drive are the two significant functions in 1.1.3.

 iPod Touch firmware update rumored this weekend

It would also likely have the effect of scuppering current Jailbreak methods, not to mention iPhone SIM unlocks, so as ever the Apple-Touch.com advice is that, should an update launch, don’t install it if you’re planning on running third-party software.
