Ipod 3g, ugh, nothing installs.

So it's been a long time coming, getting around to getting a soldering gun and the tools needed to replace the battery in my old but perfectly working ipod touch 3g. Finally did it since I hate leaving a device to die just because the battery is old. However now that I can play with it again I find that nothing, save older versions of youtube and pandora, will install on iOS 5.1. I'm wondering if someone's made a torrent app pack of many of the top apps for the Apple 3rd gen stuff.
 
I have one too. Use Tongbu. I don't have a link, it's Chinese but just like app store and you can pick app versions (if your Chinese reading skills are good).
 
That thing is ancient and very slow. I might suggest just using it as an iPod.

It is only ancient and slow if you are trying to run newer versions of iOS and /or apps. I believe the OP is just wanting old versions of some apps. My iPod Touch 2G is fast enough to run whatever apps I still have on there.

Well, my iPhone 3G is just painfully slow, period. It runs iOS 4.

It would probably feel faster on iOS 3, but I can't downgrade, and that would make the app compatibility much worse too.
