I might get an iPod Touch 3rd Gen soon. I am expecting the price to drop after tommorow (iPad Release) I'll probably Jailbreak it, so where are some good places to get Apps? [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=914286"]I would assume this is the best way to jailbreak?[/URL] What are some good apps, especially games?
My money's on the price won't drop just yet, it's a US only release and I'm not sure what the connection is anyway. Follow that thread to a certain point - you can downgrade but from that point on since I go for PwnageTool since it's the native one for OS X. It's also mucho flashier, but eh. The store'll be fine but I stopped looking around for apps after appulous went boosh.
When you jailbreak it, you will get the cydia app, you'll get most apps there. And about games, if you like nintendo games, you can get emulators like NES 3, snes4iphone and gb4iphone.

[QUOTE=HubmaN;21122794]PieClock's point exactly[/QUOTE] And the iPad is nothing except for a big iPod Touch. Therefore only stupid Apple fans will flock to it and thus making my original point invalid.

Listen, we won't really know until the iPad Releases, right? Anyway, the thread is going off topic. :saddowns:

[QUOTE=Zedo Mann;21122013]It's a big iPod Touch[/QUOTE] Yes, it is. But its release will not result in a price fall.
[QUOTE=Generic Monk;21123767]Yes, it is. But its release will not result in a price fall.[/QUOTE] Yes, we have established this.
Cydia apps or Appstore apps?
[QUOTE=Sharker;21124685]Cydia apps or Appstore apps?[/QUOTE] Both. Isn't there a way to get Appstore apps for Free?
Is there anything important I should know about the iPod Touch (3rd Gen) before I get it? Warnings? Anything important I shouldn't do? For the most part, I am prepared, I figure I'll save my money and around the time of my Birthday (June), I will buy one.
Nothing much about it, really - I don't think it was released with much fanfare yet it has the 3GS internals.

I would say hold off on purchasing an ipod touch due to the fact that sometime during the summer apple makes a new generation. Also 3.1.3 is currently not jail-breakable and Geohot says he wont be working on another jailbreak until the next major update Plus theres the whole "untethered" jailbreak aspect of the 3rd generation (dont know if they will ever unlock the baseband for any of the new touches though)

Also, the next Gen better have 16Gb for $200 or something else cool (and it better be Jailbreakable on Windows) or I'll just buy the 3rd Gen to save money. [editline]02:51AM[/editline] Actually if [URL="http://www.ipodrepublic.com/ipod-touch/4th-generation-ipod-touch-g4/2010/01/11/"]this is true[/URL], I might get the 4th Gen just because it'll be nicer. [editline]02:52AM[/editline] Even if I do have to wait to Jailbreak the damn thing.

[/QUOTE] they stopped 16gb after second gen unfortunately, though i think a 32gb is worth it
[QUOTE=:awesome:;21136196]they stopped 16gb after second gen unfortunately, though i think a 32gb is worth it[/QUOTE] They really should replace 8gb with 16gb. We'll see what happens though. [editline]3:04[/editline] I really need to get a job.
