It only kills us because you don't NEED a step-by-step.

Google PwnageTool. It's the only iPhone/iPod touch unlocking software that you need to be using at this point. It does everything for you; that's good, eh?

2.1.1 is for the 2nd generation ipod touch, so you can't jailbreak it yet.

Yes everyone is forgetting one simple fact, he said 2.1.1

2.1.1 = 2nd Gen iPod Touch

The 2nd gen is NOT jailbreakable yet, so no jailbreak software will work. I would also suggest you don't try as it could brick your iPod.

Yes there eventually will be a 2.2 jailbreak for the 2nd gen, it's just a matter of time. While you're waiting, you're more then welcome to upgrade to 2.2, because you can always downgrade back if you want.

Just update yourself to 2.2. No harm done. But keep waiting for the 2nd generation iPod touch jailbreak.

you can't downgrade...i have tried numerous times to downgrade from 2.2 to 2.1.1 and it completely does not work at all.

Yes you can easily downgrade. How have you tried? Also I'm assuming you have a 2nd gen ipod touch? Because if you have a 1st gen, and you are trying to downgrade to 2.1.1, it will not work.
