how do i find out which iOS my iTouch uses?

a few months ago, my friend gave me his old iTouch, now i'm considering buying the kindle app which requires iOS 3.0 BUT i don't know which iOS my iTouch uses
obviously, there's a simple way to find this out, what is it?

Mac OS X (10.4.11), iTouch

Depending on which generation of the device you have, you may be able to upgrade it to a newer OS. The latest OS is 4.1. Will Kindle work with that?

You can upgrade to 4.1 if you have a 2nd gen or later ipod.

If you have 1st gen ipod, then you can purchase 3.1:
