Sn0wbreeze 2.0 for iPod touch 3G and 2G

Like PwnageTool for Mac, you can use Sn0wbreeze 2.0 on Windows to build custom firmware files without upgrading the baseband.

Except for iPod touch 4G, Sn0wbreeze supports all previous generation of iPod touches, including iPod touch 3G and iPod touch 2G (MC Model). If your iPod touch meets the criteria listed above, then you can jailbreak it on iOS 4.1 using Sn0wbreeze 2.0. Simply follow the instructions posted here (ignoring the “Activation” bits in Step 6 as that is for iPhone only) to jailbreak your iPod touch 3G and iPod touch 2G (MC and Non-MC Model) on iOS 4.1.
