If I do buy an iPod Touch, I would plan to jailbreak it.

Are there any major casualties to jail breaking the iPod Touch 3G?

If I can remember correctly, I think I saw someone post that if you turned the 3G series of iPod Touches off, they would lose their jailbreak status?

Is there anything more to it than just the apps and the main features? How is the internet browsing? I can't be bothered reading any reviews. Happy

Well i would not buy one now because if you update to 3.1.3 you cant jailbreak unless they release a newer methoud of jailbreaking!.

i would just buy a 2g there is not really a difference ecept that the 3g ipod is tethered o your right you cant turn it off but you can lock it!.

I've had my iTouch for a year now and it's working like a dream..touch wood. I thought when I had bought it, I hope this isn't going to be a gadget I buy then stop using a few months down the line but no, it definitely hasn't been. Such a good little toy, use it every day whether it be for listening to music at the gym or playing games while on the bus.

It's not just the ability to get apps for free, you can mod your springboard i.e. have 5 icons at the bottom dock, or maybe just the normal ammount with a reflective effect.

You can also add themes and tweaks giving it the ability to run quicker.

A handy thing is, it allows you to download and install apps that aren't on the App Store (Homebrew)
