So I was an idiot, and tried to put 4.0 on my iPod touch without being a part of the Developer Program.
Now I can't go back to the original software, and I get this screen.
Any ideas?

Hopefully you have everything backed up on your computer. If so, my suggestion would be putting it in DFU mode and see if that will get iTunes to work with it.

Step 1: Turn off your iPod touch / iPhone completely and connect to PC / mac

Step 2: Hold down the Power button for 3 seconds

Step 3: Without releasing the power button, also hold the Home button for 10 seconds

Step 4: Without releasing the home button, release the power button and keep holding the Home button for 20 seconds.

Itunes will identify that you are in DFU mode.

Now you should be able to restore with iTunes.
 
Alright thanks!

I actually ended up having a friend register it for me, so it all turned out well.

4.0 is pretty nice.
