how to update iphone 3gs from ios 4.1 to latest available version?

Hi


My daughter has bought a 3gs which is currently running 4.1. Can it be updated any further and how would she do this? when the phone is plugged into iTunes and we click the update button is just says iTunes is running the latest version and doesn't update the phone.


Can anyone help please?


Many thanks
