Please save my iPod Touch!!!?

I jailbroke my iPod Touch 16gb and downloaded the mail app and mail prep and put the mail app in the dock in the home screen. Then the mail app wouldn't work so I uninstalled it.

Then it restarted and now it won't do anything.

I turned it on and it brings me to the normal unlock screen and it had the slide to unlock thing but the little "loading" circle was there and it wouldn't stop and I tried sliding the thing but it wouldn't work.

I tried restoring it on iTunes but it says that the restore was cancelled.

I tried restarting it but the same thing happens.

PLEASE HELP!!! I got it for christmas and it cost loads so please help.

    -turn it on until it messes up

    -while it is doing the wired stuff, hold down sleep/wake(top button) and home until it turns off

    -when the apple logo appears, let go of sleep/wake and continue hold home for about 30 seconds or until the connect to itunes screen comes up, which may or may not happen

    -if you have done this correctly, it is in self restore mode

    -now open itunes and restore it and now it will work

    and also if you want to know the safest and easiest way to get mail app, email me

    by the way, jailbreaking does not technically void the warranty, it only does if the jailbreaking breaks something, but if the ipod broke with or without jailbreak, it is still covered

    and anyways, jailbreaking cannot permanently damage your ipod in any way at all

    you have a possibility of a bug and a virus. go to the Apple store and they should fix it for free because you got it at Christmas. GOOD LUCK AND HOPE IT GETS FIXED!
