Will I lose anything on my iPod doing this? Is it safe to do? Thanks.

umm.. why would you want to jailbreak? iPhone 3.0 will bring many new features which encouraged people to jailbreak in the past, so I don't know why people still want to jailbreak. The only 2 applications that I ever wish Apple bring for us are Intelliscreen and Folders (or that app where we can have folders). Other than that (copy-paste, MMS, video recording, universal landscape keyboard, etc) will all be included in 3.0

I myself have never jailbroken my iPhone. I'm just afraid it'll mess up my iPhone and I don't wanna risk losing any data. I also heard some games run less smoothly and crashes more on jailbroken iDevices.

I really don't know why. I just want to, getting a theme is about the only thing I want to do. I don't really care if I do or not though.

So long as you turn off settings like mail push settings it will run smooth, i got a 16 gig 2nd gen ipod touch, it is worth it i think, or atleast untill 3.0, but u can just unjailbreak

I agree. I think that the iPhone/iPod Touch will follow the PSP. With the PSP, there was the ability to hack (jailbreak) the PSP which allowed you to use custom themes, PS1 games etc. However, Sony saw what hackers were doing and decided to include it in an official update which allowed people to do the same things on a normal PSP as a hacked PSP could. Already with the 3.0 update, lots of things will be included that make jailbreaking pointless and a waste of time. Also, I used to have a jailbroken iPhone, but it ran really slow and apps where crashing all the time. The actual home screen used to crash and white-out and I lost all my data . So after that, I restored it to factory settings and it worked fine.

You don't understand why some people jailbreak. I jailbreak to get themes, something apple may never give us, also, don't tell someone not to jailbreak if you yourself have not been jailbroken

There have been screenshots of a video recorder and rumors, but that is all it has been so far

So the 3.0 update lets you block all ads in Safari, use Custom Themes, change your system fonts, have nice widgets, play GBA games, and just add a lot of other cool little tweaks to the iDevice?

You can't mess up your iPhone unless you really, really, try to. I personally love my Jailbroken iPod Touch 2G and haven't had any issues with App-Store games I purchased freezing or lagging or anything

It is impossible to mess up your iPhone jailbreaking because you will always be able to get into DFU mode
