you need iTunes, an iTunes account, and the ability to purchase with that account. this is for the 5 apps.

however, upgrading to 1.1.3 firmware is free via iTunes.

quite frankly, the iphone dock is ugly....i prefer the 1.1.1/1.1.2 ipod touch dock.

personally, i have the 16GB and love it to death.

as for your 2nd question, in its native form (straight out of the box), it cannot handle any attachments. once it is jailbroken, there is a PDF viewer app that can be installed. But i don't think it can handle MS office docs (anyone can confirm this?).

for more detailed information about unleashing the power of the ipod Touch, please check the sticky thread in this sub-forum.

from everything that i've read so far, yes. a simple restore via iTunes will get your ipod back to "virgin" state but all your songs and vids in your ipod also gone so need to resync.
