I have an iPod Touch 4g running IOS 5.1.1. I didn't want to pay for an iPad or for a voice & data for an iPhone. I have a pay as you go cell phone that I'm happy with. And the iPod Touch is only $200. If I can jailbreak it and get it to recognize my bluetooth GPS receiver, I can it into Location Services and I'll essentially have a talking GPS for under $300. An iPad is either $500 or $600, I forget. Its lots more than an iPad anyway. An iPhone with a built in GPS is only $400 but then you do have to sign up for a cell phone planSo I decided to take a shot at jailbreaking an iPod Touch..
I would have just bought a Kapten Plus but they are no longer making them. You can't buy them any more.

What kind of iPod is it? Did you just buy it new?

I got kicked off the macvoiceover list for that (no warning, no appeal, nothing). But jailbreaking an IOS device is absolutely legal. I think its crazy that you can get kicked off the macvoiceover list for just bringing it up.I want to jailbreak my iPod Touch so I can hook it up to a bluetooth GPS. I'm hoping that if I can get it to work, I can build myself a talking GPS for under $300.************ You are subscribed to the mac4theblind mailing list.The url for this list, where one can unsubscribe or make any changes to their list subscription is://www.freelists.org/list/mac4theblind The list archive is located at //www.freelists.org/archive/mac4theblind/ All emails intended for the list owner can be sent to: john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx************ You are subscribed to the mac4theblind mailing list.The url for this list, where one can unsubscribe or make any changes to their list subscription is://www.freelists.org/list/mac4theblind The list archive is located at //www.freelists.org/archive/mac4theblind/ All emails intended for the list owner can be sent to: john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
