Just wanted to see how much of the community here is jailbroken? If you are, what firmware are you jailbroken on. If you are not, why do you not go down the path of not jailbreaking.
Got a tip for us?

Still waiting for untethered jailbreak for ios 5. Can't wait until its released!

I thought there is already a tethered jailbreak for iOS 5.0.1... I think there's also like a semi-untethered jailbreak too

I am on 5.0.1 and use a tethered jailbreak.

My 1st generation iPod touch is jailbroken, so that I can install 3rd party patches to known security vulnerabilities that were never never patched by official Apple upgrades.
My 3rd generation iPod touch is running stock Apple firmware.

I tried jailbreaking with redsn0w but then I'd either not be able to boot tethered (ie boot in a way that Cydia works) or, like what happened once, I would be able to open Cydia but after rebooting the iPod it would hang at the Apple logo, and I couldn't boot it jailbroken. I'd always end up having to do a DFU restore

I used snowbreeze with no problems. I also had problems with redsnow. I love the way that sbsettings is integrated into ios 5 notification center

Mine is jailbroken with redsnow on 4.3.3 - But i have all blobs from 3.1.3 to 4.3.3, so i might go back to 4.0 later, we'll see.. Working fine and a hell of a battery in it too, lasts for 16-18 days without charging it, and thats the best part i think. 
No,
first off I'm perfectly happy with it how my iPod is now
second off I don't know how to do it
third off I don't know what it does
fourth off... if my iPod breaks then what the heck do I do?
I think it's too risky and I'll just mess something up, and if my iPod breaks again, Apple will see it and wave me away.

too personal...
jk, yes! i wish my phone were too...damn untethered ios5 jb hurry up!

first off dont do it then
second off YouTube it
third off Google it
fourth off jailbreaking is 100% reversible, restore as new and nobody will ever know you did it.

Then there's the little kid voting down every post that they like jailbreak

It DOES NOT void your warranty if you restore before you bring it in to Apple.

If you actually research on how to jailbreak, it takes less than 5 minutes, requires no critical thinking skills.
Restore through iTunes is always an option if iPod malfunctions
Restoring through iTunes removes any traces of jailbreaking, after issue is fixed with warranty, a jailbreak can be applied again.
Jailbreaking virtually has no disadvantages, problems can be fixed with a restore.
Since I'm currently satisfied with the features on my iPod touch, I don't see any reason to jailbreak it.

I would rephrase that:
I you restore before you bring it in, Apple probably won't be able to tell that it was jailbroken, and therefore they won't know that the warranty ought to be void.
Of course. I can't imagine iOS without SBSettings, Activator, Folder Enhancer and many other goodies.
iOS is good without those to, I've survived 9 months without a untethered jailbreak (dumb jailbreakme didn't work for me on 4.3.3
)
