New iPod Touch 4G - Top 10 things I shoud do with it?

BarkBarkCo

Just got my hands on a brand new iPod Touch 4G. A friend of a friend works for a local police department and they seized a shipment of stolen Apple products. Before everything goes off to auction they let the police employees buy whatever they want real cheap! I got my 8GB iPod factory sealed for $100!

Anyway, what are the best iOS 4/Retina Display specific apps to try? Should I JailBreak it? If yes, what then? Give me some ideas!

I'd test some of my apps, but I can't build the the GameSalad Viewer until 0.9 drops, so I'm kinda bored...

I also have an ITouch4G, and as of now you cannot jailbreak ipod touch 4G because they haven't done the jailbreak for 4.1 yet.

And why can't you download the viewer? I have it downloaded on mine and it works perfectly.

Fruit ninja is great for testing the retina display

Can you get more?

I just finished jailbreaking it...I used greenpoison.

@design, I asked my friend and he said he gave mine to me at his cost. He'd charge anyone else $175 for the 8GB and that would include shipping from NY to KY.

oo I use jailbreakme, which doreent have one for 4.1 yet. But that's cool, enjoy it!

@arton, That's because 4.1 was made specifically to break jailbreakme's delivery method (the PDF trick). If you keep watching that site for a new version, get ready to wait a long time.

Anyone find a good case for the iPod Touch? Currently looking at something like this:

That looks nice and solid for a silicone! Maybe I'll get it as a back-up.

Decided to go with the Griffin Reveal case:

Mainly because I don't want to wait for shipping and they have these at my local Best Buy... ;-)
