Buy it, people. Apple deserves it.

I've already paid twice as much for an update that didn't have as much. Apple doesn't deserve it from me, I deserve it from Apple.

Why? Did they give us half off on Leopard when it was months late? ...And this update was, what, 15 hours late?

[TheBonk]

Can anyone find out if that Youtube error from the 'unofficial' 2.0 firmware is there?

 

[macman7002]

I have downloaded 2.0 and it is installing right now!
Has anybody had their iPod stuck with the "Preparing iPod Software for Restore" window in iTunes? It seems like it is taking forever right now, about 3 minutes, think it is normal?
Thanks!

i was even considering going out and buying my own new iphone instead of waiting so long for this... quite annoying, but i think it will be well worth the wait
