So its really here...We think any way. There has been a Windows release of the first Iphone Hacking tool. It sounds too good to believe Check it out and let us know. We will be testing it this afternoon and will update this post. From the developers site:
We have successfully written a tool named iPhoneInterface allowing for some basic manipulation of things on the phone, and are releasing it tonight. We are including source code so you can understand the techniques we have used so far. We will be expanding the functionality of this tool significantly tomorrow. The best news is that we have prototype code that allows the ability to:

We are including source code so you can understand the techniques we have used so far. We will be expanding the functionality of this tool significantly tomorrow. The best news is that we have prototype code that allows the ability to:
- Run any desired application already residing on the phone.
- Control what processes run on the phone (currently implementation is very hackish)
- Move files around on the phone
- Enable viewing of verbose information during the restore process
- Activate the phone without iTunes and without a token

Windows only for right now.
Hot on the heels of the announcement of the iPhone Activation tool, the team behind all the work on the iPhone Dev Wiki is getting ready to release their iPhone Interface Tool, which has an amazing set of features, and more are coming. This is an update they issued a little while ago with their plans for the tool.

Note: Not all of the features listed above are necessarily included in tonight’s initial release.
We are continuing significant work on this tool and will probably have similarly worthwhile updates tomorrow.
I should note that right now, if you aren’t working on hacking the iPhone yourself, this release is primarily interesting for academic reasons. Still, this opens iPhone hacking to an even larger group, which will hopefully mean that the end-user useful features will be coming even sooner. Right now though, we are still in the early days so don’t expect too much from these early releases.

UPDATE#2: It does what it says!
From Engadget:
An application called iPhoneInterface, a Windows and Mac tool which allows
you to manipulate the phone's state, fiddle with launch services, and interact
with the iPhone's filesystem. With the new app, you will have the ability to
scan the device's file structure, create and remove folders (which should open
doors for those not feeling the sync options), and start iPhone services. Plans
for a public server are underway, so fasten your seatbelts.
