what?

You should still be able to use your ipod.....
 
hey wut do ya know the red sn0w may come out tomorrow

It probably won't. The dev team is having some trouble with the jailbreak; they have to re-apply a patch every time the ipod is booted. This probably won't take them long though, and if it does they may just polish up the "RecoveryTool" app and send it out anyway to tide the hardcore people over.

Here's hoping I'm wrong! :p:D
 
Jailbroken iPod Touch 2nd Gen

You can't jailbreak the second generation iPod touch yet.

Well i don't mean to be rude or anything but its already done. Just last night i jailbroke my iPod touch second gen and it is so so worth it. It is certainly risky. You can do it super easily its all on youtube and there are a couple posts on here about that, i was basically the first guiny pig to test this and it worked perfectly. It is not stable if you will (yet). 75% of the time it will work perfectly but the other 25% no worries on iTunes when you simply connect it and click restore and it will be back to normal and you can try it again anyway if you have a question ask me? k talk to you guys later.


aXXo:D
 
It doesn't exist.

It is also now MOOT, as 2.2.1 is out, and the Dev Team will change their focus to that instead of 2.2.

Well, not really. First of all, if they've made progress on 2.2, then they can just have people downgrade. I doubt the specific code that they're looking at has changed significantly or even at all. In fact, this release gives them two versions of the code to look at and find exploitable holes in. Also, the first exploit the dev team found is in the 2.1.1 iBSS anyway, and that iBSS is easily uploaded to work with later firmwares (or so they tell us).
 
Guess you are confused as to what I was replying to. I was replying to the poster above me that stated he already jailbroke his touch and I stated that he should provide links of how to do it and the program or it didn't exist and he was lying.

does exist not released to public yet demo video here:

dev team's blog entry: http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/70407787/thermonuclear-pop

there seems to be an update in iTunes for iPod and iPhone, dev team advise not to update just yet:

You cant jailbreak ipod touch 2nd gen

yea, see the thing is that the 2.2 firmware is jailbreak-able, along with 2.2.1(i think, i have seen it done but dont know if its legit) but 2.2 is definitely jailbreak-able, i unlocked my friends iphone on friday with 2.2, but the prob with the ipod touch 2nd gen is some hardware issues or something, not really sure but i know that the dev team is working on it and it should be released soon
 
What applications you would want to load

I am new to iPod touch....

Why would one want to jailbreak? What sorts of applications would one want to load and why?

Sorry so lame....

Well for one thing, you would get to be able to program on windows, control your computer (touch pad, keyboard, and everything), control all electronics in the house, get Adobe Flash, change the background behind the icons, put a message at startup, and all this for FREE!!!
