Questions about IOS 4.0 and my iTouch?

[Toby]

**2G iTouch!**

Hey. I have always been keeping up to date on every new software that apple comes out with. And, as of now, I am on the most recent one before 4.0 came out. And 4.0 has A LOT of new stuff with it. Things that Steve Jobs said won't be on the iTouch.

However, I would like to get 4.0 because I heard some apps require that to work. My question is:

*Is it worth it to upgrade to 4.0 for a 2g iTouch, or not? Why/why not?*

And, a follow-up:

*Would jailbreaking the iTouch into the new software unlock the capabilities for it rather than officially updating?*


Thank you!

I can't see any reason for not updating apart from I find that the new software's multitasking aspect annoying because you just end up with like 30 apps open slowing the iPod down unless you go through them manually on the menu at the bottom and close them. It doesn't seem worth it to me. Not sure about second question.
