Right now we have tethered and untethered jailbreak tools available for iOS 4.2.1 supported devices. The tethered solution Redsn0w 0.9.6 b4 is pretty much easy to implement,  but you will need to connect your device to a Mac or PC to restart it into the jailbreak mode. The untethered jailbreak tools in Redsn0w 0.9.7 series are still under testing and for which you need your iOS 4. 2b3 Signature Hash files saved on Cydia server. GreenPois0n RC5 jailbreak doesn’t need iOS ipsw files or SHSH backup so it seems to be the most convenient method available at this point.
