  • A lot of patience... :)
The Steps:
  1. Please backup your iPod JUST IN CASE!
  2. Plug your iPod Touch 4G into Windows.
  3. Download limera1n from: http://www.limera1n.com/
  4. Follow the steps (It's just "click" and "DFU Mode")
  5. Wait till you see the limera1n logo on your iPod Touch 4G.
  6. After that, your iPod Touch 4g will automatically shut down.
  7. Move back to your Mac, and plug your iPod Touch 4G.
  8. Unlock your device (slide to unlock), and turn your Wi-Fi on.

Congratz!! You are done! :)

Some Reviews:
The jailbreak doesn't lag AT ALL. Previously, I was using iPod Touch 1G and so I am telling you, this is a huge significance.
Battery Consumption: Still testing out
Jailbreak Apps: Still testing out

There is no iPod Touch 3G for ...

I just sold away my new iPod Touch 8GB which I got from Apple Back To School promotion.

During the sales process, theres quite a few number of people asking me if its the iPod Touch 3G version.

Heres where the confusion lies. The iPod Touch 3G is only available on the 32GB or 64GB version. 8GB version if iPod Touch is only released up to 2G. You can find more information on the different models of iPod Touch released in Wikipedia.

Though there is no iPod Touch 3G for the 8GB version, it will come with the new iOS 4 software as well. However, multitasking and on some models homescreen was disabled for the second generation iPod Touch because Apple thought the iPod was too slow for these features.
