    I have the 2nd gen touch and I was
    Wondering if there is a way I could
    Put a restriction on my notes since I
    Often times place important infos in it
    And I don't want other peeps having an
    Access (people are amazed by the beauty
    Of the gadget I can't simply not let
    Them browse it when asked =) )
    Thanks in advance!

    You can't set some sort of restriction or password for the Notes application. The only thing I can suggest is activating a passcode in Settings, which you'll have to type in every time you slide to unlock.

    sigh... Too bad.. I was hoping that there
    Was a way since setting passwrd when
    Unlocking my iPod won't protect my
    Notes data when I unlock it and let them
    Browse through my touch... Thanks anyways!

    The only way to have any password specific to any application is if your jailbroken. There is not jailbreak for 2nd Generation ipod Touches YET. But there have been a lot of activity on jailbreak related sites so keep a watch for it.

    You could also use an app like LockBox to securely store your private notes. It is free.
