it seems today apple have released firmware 1.1.5 today for users on 1.1.4 can simply press update and they will get a message about 1.1.5 and the good news is it's jailbreakable still as per 1.1.4.

iPod1,1_1.1.5_4B1_Restore is the name and you do not see it in itunes you can it here: http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ in the second drop down menu and yes its official and on the apple servers

EDIT: here is direct link off apple servers: http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite...20080714.bgy8O/iPod1,1_1.1.5_4B1_Restore.ipsw

That weird. Why would Apple do that? It's almost like they're saying "here you go jailbreakers, here's a more stable/improved firmware for you guys who don't wanna pay for your apps".:confused:

Just like OSX, they continue to do security/stability updates to older OSs, 10.4 is on .11 right now. Plus they may want to update it to work with mobileme email, just basic functionality no push. Changing .mac references to .me, etc.

Apple: As of right now, there is now 1.1.5, 2.0 is the most up-to-date.

What? "As of right now, there is NOW 1.1.5, 2.0 is the most up to date."

Typo? Or there is NO update? I can't tell.

If your an iPod Touch user who doesnt wan't to upgrade to 2.0 (the most recent firmware but doesnt appear when 'Checking for Updates' because you need to pay). 1.1.5 is just an update to 1.1.4.

version shouldn't matter same with all itunes and ipod updates just use the already described method.

Open iTunes and hold down Shift + Option and click on 'Update' it will then ask you to provide a file location and click ok

when you follow that itunes will update using the downloaded 1.1.5
