I lost Cydia and Installous. I realize I shouldn't have upgraded when iTunes asked me but it was an afterthought (i dont even know what 3.1.1 updates for my touch...). I still have the apps that I downloaded but i'm sure my Touch is no longer jailbroken. the thing that worries me the most is what i read in this article: "you will lose your ultrasn0w unlock. In fact you may lose it permanently..."

is it possible to restore my Touch to before the update or do i pretty much need to wait it out and see if solutions can be made
 
A. There is no 3.1.1

B. You can't unlock an iPod touch to begin with. Don't worry.

You can put the device into DFU mode, and hold alt and click restore, and choose the 3.0 file, and then rejailbreak with redsn0w.

a. i have 3.1.1
b. oops i meant jailbroken

this is the first time i've updated my touch since i used redsn0w on it so i dont know how dumb of a move that was. i guess ill just try to jailbreak it with redsn0w again

Just revert the firmware, or wait a few days/a week or so, for the Dev Team to update redsn0w for 3.1 & 3.1.1. I would just enjoy a stock iPod until then.
 
yeah, restore to 3.0 firmware using shift + click restore and it will prompt you to select the .ipsw to restore from.
now it would be neat if you could image your entire ipod touch jailbroken into a .ipsw file.. minus music or whatever.
