The iPod touch is in stores now - which means the iTunes WiFi Store is also in the wild. Has anyone seen an update to iPhone yet? I haven't on mine.

What if the store app is already on the phone, and Apple just needs to flip the switch? Like the .mac Web Gallery was.

I had the same thoughts.

If the store is up and running and ready, we should see an update ASAP.

On the "flip-the-switch" part:

I really don't like this whole new thing with apple releases software updates and then waiting to turn a feature on. If they release the update, they should release it! If it's not ready until Thursday, release Thrsday - NOT MONDAY.

Maybe I'm just impatient, but seriously...

I played with the WIFI store today on an iPod Touch. It was pretty cool. I asked a salesperson when it will be enabled for the iPhone -- he didn't know. All he said was, later this month.

According to a USATODAY.com article there should be an update to the iPhone later this week. I hope this is true...

The Wi-Fi store was flawless in tests on the Touch, which Apple says will hit retailers later this week. Wi-Fi downloads, which will require a software update for iPhone owners, will also be available by then.

Well. The work day is over today, and one workday left on Friday. I don't trust USAToady on Apple rumors, anyway.

well, they were right about the iPod Touch being released this week. They also stated that Apple told them this information, not a 3rd party source.

I was always under the assumption that we would see the iPhone update when iPod Touches started hitting the stores. So, hopefully we will get this update soon.
