Help with iPod second generation and some apps?
Okay, I just baught an iPod second generation off of the Apple store for $150, and I need some help with some stuff on it.
1. Okay, you know those apps that you text free with? Do you need to be connected to Wi-Fi or a telephone line?
2.What are the risks of Jailbreaking?
3. Does activating it cost money?

Ok, I guess you mean a iPod Touch 2G. I didn't even know they still made that model, because the 4G is out.
1. You need to be connected to Wi-Fi.
2. There is a very small chance that your iPod will be bricked (unusable), but 99.5% of the time, the jailbreak will be successful. The biggest risk is that it voids the warranty.
3. You don't have to activate an iPod. Activating is for iPhones.
I hope that helped.

Your only problem is bricking but that is realy rare. when i tried to jailbreak my 3G and it crashed the whole firmwire and put it in recovery mode

My favorite testing app is Textfree with Voice. it's free, let's you send unlimited texts and picture messages, AND it let's you call (if you have a microphone) but it works great even without ever using the call feature.
