I'm having problems...
I ran the software update on my iPhone, it went smoothly until it restarted the phone. Now i have a connect to itunes image, but when i connect to itunes, my iPhone does not show up... Any ideas? How can i reset my iPhone without iTunes connecting?

Same here with the 1403 error. Did not download the full file. Redownloaded for the 3rd time and got the whole file. Installing now.

So I'm upgraded and stuff. Anybody having any luck with the Facebook app? Mine keeps saying it is umavailable.

Works On Vista
Installed on mine. Works great.
To repeat some other posts for Windows.
1. Download iTunes 7.7
2. Download the 2.0 File
3. Hold down Shift key while clicking on Check For Update (NOT Restore).
4. Go to the directory where you have saved the file.
5. Firefox saves the file where you want it without placing the .zip on the end of the file.
6. After the 2.0 is installed, and iPhone reboots, it will reactivate the phone.
7. Then restore all of you backed up files.
8. Then do a Sync to get all of your Music and Applications, etc. onto the phone.
Hopefully, I haven't left out anything. If I have, I'm sure someone will catch it. LOL

Worked fine for me. Didn't take very long either. I did notice once the update installed the phone was locked and then went through the activation process again. I'm playing with apps now... 
I thinks I am going to wait for the update to go live officially. Based on previous time, anyone have a tiem frame between update release and the time it takes it to be available via "Check For Update" (not having to use the option key and doing it manually)?
Just upgraded to 2.0 but in the process I never got the message to do the one time back up. Thankfully, it recovered everything from my previous backup.
solution for error 5
i found a solution for error 5 that seems to have worked for me, i dunno if this has already been established though
just upgrade to itunes 7.7. i was running 7.6.2 and software update currently views that version as the newest (it hasn't been seeded out yet). 7.7 has 3g iphone support, so go to apples site and upgrade to 7.7, then upgrade your iphone to 2.0
works

Warning!
To all those with Jailbroken (i.e. non-official) iPhones: don't apply this firmware update!! . You will be able to update the firmware, but you won't be able to activate or make calls on it. You'll have to wait for the iPhone hacking team to release an update to their hacking software before you'll be able to activate/jailbreak it again.
Also, if you're not using an 'official SIM', you won't be able to make calls on it either (again, until an unlocking tool is released). SIM unlocking is what took the time for the dev team to do before, so don't expect it to be ready any time soon for firmware 2.0.

I'm not sure about this but I'm pretty sure it will. Just in case, I am buying the apps through iTunes
The ipsw file hasn't even download yet. 9 minutes remaining
jailbroken
so....
does a phone need to be jailbroken to do this?
I can't do it. I'm doing it all right, I know I am, but I either have to restore from scratch 1.1.4 if i try to restore from the file, or an 0x3.......error if I try to update.
what's wrong here?

For those asking all the jailbreak/unlock questions:
1. If you are previously jailbroken, or jailbroken+unlocked, upgrading will probably go fine the way I understand it, as the phone basically gets wiped
2. However, if you do not have a legit SIM, it will not re-activate, and you will be stuck on activation screen
3. The phone will also probably be relocked (not entirely sure on this one if you used pwnage, other methods definitely).
4. The dev team had photos of what was thought to be the GM already jailbroken (and unlocked too I assume?). I'm sure they are just in the process of testing the real release before they release pwnage 1.2 (or 2.0?).
5. In conclusion, if you need an unlock - WAIT before upgrading. It should only be a few hours/days at most.
