Yes, your phone will remain unlocked but your jailbreak contents and apps will be gone. You can choose to restore or just update it right away.
You're the one who needs to get it right.
iPhone 2G (mostly locked units): If jailbreak-ed, contents or apps will be erased and your phone is locked.
iPhone 3G (unofficially unlocked units): If jailbreak-ed, contents or apps will be erased and your phone is locked.
iPhone 3G (officially unlocked units): If jailbreak-ed, contents or apps will be erased but your phone remains unlocked.

Restore is the only option.
No, you can update it right away. Officially unlocked phones are safe,
jailbreak-ed iPhone is not cause it will revert your phone back to locked unit.Jailbreak phones are safe as well, yellowsn0w ones are not.
However, jailbreak ones need to wait for the release of new jailbreaking tools for 3.0, and if its an unlocked phone, it will stay that way till kingdom comes.
@Mike3300
Let me just ask you based on your original answer rebutted by Hanxz....what if my jailbroken iPhone is an officially unlocked unit? According to your statement highlighted above, you said it is not safe and my phone will lock. And that is incorrect which is what Hanxz is pointing out.
Your subsequent clarification actually reaffirms what Hanxz said as when he said yellowsn0w ones, he means un-officially unlocked units.
There you are, guys, again, as I have stated many times in this forum, it is the usage of the language that sometimes misleads us and unwittingly we remain adamant.
