According to MuscleNerd, Ultrasn0w is experiencing problems and will be worked on throughout the weekend. He hasn't given an ETA.
My thing is... Where's QuickPWN?!

kinda tried that. i tried downloading itunes 8.1.0 again to see if i could salvage my phone for now. nothing. i don't know if i should've deleted my entire itunes folder or not but that didn't work. i can't even put my phone in restore mode. i'm stuck with a formatted phone that receives texts and phone calls. so i can't match numbers with names. i hope they figure it all out tomorrow

Yep!
You've been left in limbo alright.
If you need the phone and can get calls and text, then I would stay put.
But if you're left with an annoying formatted useless phone, I would restore to 3.0 and use either Pwnage tool or redsn0w to JB it (providing you have an older phone where to insert your SIM to stay connected in the meantime until the summer brings us an ultrasn0w storm.)

If I jailbreak with redsn0w, can I unlock my phone later with yellowsn0w? or will it be a pain?

That is the recommended path at the moment... jailbreak with redsnow so you can use as an iPod Touch and when ultrasn0w is released it will just show up in Cydia. Go for it!

Yes I meant ultrasn0w!
Well I'm already on AT&T so don't really need to have it unlocked. Just thought it might be nice incase I go overseas or in the future if I ever switch to tmobile.
I guess my question is, if I jailbreak my 3G with redsn0w, how easy is it to unlock the phone with ultrasn0w? Do I need to restore everything again?? or is it a short process? Thanks.

All you have to do is install ultrasn0w from Cydia and it'll be unlocked.
EDIT: Although, now that I think about it...that's actually not true...future updates will surely update the baseband so ultrasn0w won't work. If you want to unlock in the future, make sure you only use custom ipsw's that don't upgrade the baseband from the current 3.0 baseband. Of course ultrasn0w in the future may work for future basebands...we don't know.

So Just to clarify:
I can JB my 3G to os 3.0 via PwnageTool 3.0 and use the sim to which i am carrier locked
and then when ultrasn0w is released, install it via cydia and then i will be unlocked and able to use any sim
Correct?
-

Correct, I JB with redsn0w, and I thought I'd take the time to prepare everything while I waited for ultrasn0w, so I did a clean swipe of my whole iPhone, so ever since I've been adding videos, music, apps, all back to my iPhone while I wait for the nifty unlock.
