it does work

i jailbroke 4.1 with limerain. If its not there go to the icon for limerain and there should be an option to install cydia in there

Yep as said above - I jailbroke mine with limera1n no problem too.

PS the iphone/ipod touch/ipad firmware is due to updated to iOS 4.2 any day now. Make sure you don't update until it's confirmed the jailbreaks work perfectly on it.

I'd recommend going with greenpois0n rather than limera1n. They both use the same exploit but greenpois0n is a lot stabler for a lot of people.

Do a restore to 4.1 with itunes then jailbreak straight away etc.

It must be timing out due to the slow connection. If you can get somewhere with wifi then that'll be great, but if you can get a good 3G connection then it should work too (obviously he'll need a data plan of some sort).
