iPod Touch 2G - any messaging apps??

Hello all,

I bought an iPod Touch 2G for my daughter as a Christmas present and she loves it but she wants to be able to send messages to either my iPhone4 or my wife's iPhone 3GS.

All the apps I have tried need iOS 4.3 and our iPod Touch only goes up to iOS 4.2.1 so its really frustrating!


I know nothing about jailbreaking, the benefits or even where to even start! All I know is it invalidates your warrenty which for this iPod has expired


Does anyone know of a messenging app that uses 4.2.1 ?


If not, is jailbreaking it an option? If I can get iOS 4.3 on it then apps like Viber or Touch can then be installed


Appreciate any help you can give me

A result!


I read a webpage about previous versions of apps and how, when iTunes updates them it just sends the old version to the recycle bin. I always delete my recycle bin but my wife doesn't! Found the old version and added that to iTunes replacing the updated version. Resynced iPod to PC and voila it synced and installed the Touch app!


She'll be we'll happy tomorrow!
