With WinPwn, a Windows port of Pwnage Tool from the iPhone Dev Team, you can create customer firmware from Apple's official updates and load it on your iPod to jailbreak it again. This will once again give you access to programs created by the independent development community that's grown around the iPhone and iPod Touch while allowing you to continue using the iTunes App Store and all the software found there.
Our new guide, Jailbreak an iPod Touch with v2 Software walks you step by step through the process of creating the new firmware and restoring it to your iPod using WinPwn and iTunes.
As a bonus there's also an Afterdawn.com Boot Logo, which you can use to replace Apple's default power-on image. Instructions are included in the guide.
Since the new iPod software is a substantial change from the old, software from the old Installer program won't work with it, but a lot of those titles are being ported, and others can already be found in the App Store. Some programs, like Winterboard, are already available.
