Do you have a Mac? If not, your app-making is going to be severely limited to only a couple of hacked options.

The easiest way to code for any OS by Mac is to use XCode. It's free and the workflow is great... :D But it only runs on Mac OS. :(

If you don't have a Mac, then your options are extremely limited. Though you could virtualise Mac OSX on a PC, but that's also getting complicated.

Btw if it's an iPod touch and has a camera, then it's 4g and it should have the camera on both sides with mics. :)

Since I bought my new phone I don't use my iPod touch. So I decided yesterday to turn it into a web server, one of the reasons I love i OS, just simple Linux. Although it goes really slow.

My understanding was that the iOS SDK does not work in any kind of emulation on PC, sadly. That has been the #1 feature to get working in the major Mac emu communities, but I looked into a little while back and they were still far off. I think the compiler itself was causing huge problems. I think XCode works as an IDE, but you would not have the compiler.

There is Dragon Fire SDK, but this is basically smoke and mirrors. It doesn't have a PC iOS compiler and instead works in Visual Studio with C/++ and sends your code to their Mac servers to be compiled. However, I think there is something not right under the surface, because they only give you so many compiles before you would need to buy a package of more. Think of how many time you have to compile an app while debugging. 50 or so compiles could be gone in a day.
