I have a 32gig 3g iPod Touch and I was wondering if it could update farther than iOS 5.1.1. I am updating iTunes to the most recent update. Would that help update my iPod farther?

Hey! We know we all want to get the latest iOS, But no, the iPod 3g wasn't designed and doesn't have the RAM memory or the processor to run a heavier iOs, you can't do it. It wont help you to do it.
Happy Christmas, a little late :)

No it won't go any further than 5.1.1 unless apple makes another update specifically for that generation. Updating iTunes won't make it update either.

Nothing. Size is not the issue, it's the hardware such as CPU and RAM that limit it to 5.1.1. It's slow enough and newer ios's don't help.
