I stumbled across this tutorial on Afterdawn but I didn't see a posting date so I was wondering if this is still a current method to jailbreak a g2 touch on Windows.

http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/jailbreak_ipod_touch_with_v2_software.cfm

Everything I came across when I was reading about jailbraking said you would lose any apps you paid for but this tutorial says they can be restored on the jailbroken touch, is this true with any of the methods?

I also see QuickFreedom mentioned alot, would I be better over using that?

FOR SURE!
I have Vista and used Quickfreedom follwing this youtube video.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b35Rh7sxhw

Be sure to read the desc if your using Vista however, as it does include some important info.

Thanks I will give that a try. I have been trying to use Quick Freedom on my XP laptop but iTunes fails at the restore, it is in DFU mode with white screen when I start the restore and I am using the correct firmware.

Does the version of Itunes matter? I am running the most current version.
