What's Jailbreak?

Restoring...few questions

1) I've read around that if you restore a jailbroken device, it'll get bricked. Is this true?

2) I really wanna restore, back to 2 months ago, when everything was working fine. Will that restore EVERYTHING, like make it fresh, and all my MobileSubstrate addons and Cydia apps gone?

3) I wanna try the 3.0 jailbreak. I'm on FW 2.2.1 right now. So, do I restore to the original 2.2.1 firmware (not jailbroken) then update to the 3.0 firmware, THEN jailbreak it?

1. no
2. you can do sync with iTunes to a previous back up, but if your having problems I wouldn't cause it will not cure your problems..
3. no, just update in iTunes 8.2 and you can go to OS 3.0 then following directions jailbreak.

Haha, thanks BT!
Another question; I just updated my aunt's iPhone 3G to 3.0, and mysteriously, her music and stuff remained on the device; apps and all.

Since I'm on a jailbreak (her iPhone was not), would the update process make me lose all my music? BTW, her iPhone hasn't been synced to the computer yet (the library hasn't been synced at all; brand new laptop.)
The reason I'm so startled about this is because I'm on vacation without MY laptop, which has all my media, and I'm anxious to update...lol
