Jailbreaking on iPod touch 1g

[jawslover]

I have a couple of questions
1.) What is the best way to do jailbreak?
2.) Will I still be able to get apps from the app store?
3.) Is jailbreaking illegal?
4.)What is the best app on the jailbroken app store?
5.) Will it work on firmware 2.2?
6.) What are the chances of bricking your iPod?
Thanks in advance! Sorry, but I don't want to take any chances lol
