Alot of people are with you in that purgatory, myself included. Fails directly, fails through iTunes - the activation servers must be totally overwhelmed.

my System Status app shows CPU usage hovering around 50% with only that app open, and refresh background apps off. This happened last time, and after some apps updated (not sure which ones), the CPU usage and battery drain dropped.
Just played with iTunes radio...not too shabby. I'm a Slacker fan myself, but will give this a try.
App switching is nice, and closing apps by sliding the screen above the icon up is nice (after double tapping the home button).
Look? Rather sleek, actually....getting used to is. Very responsive, BTW.

They did. iOS 7 looks awesome
Except for... the colors. There needs to be a men's version.
Sure, use the direct apple links from this article here to get your image so you can restore whenever you want to:

The speed is good, I downloaded two images in less than 20 minutes. Then use ITunes to update your phone/iPad/iPod.
Use this page to follow the small "click button" step to make sure iTunes uses the file you downloaded:

I just got it to work. I don't know if it was coincidence, but I swiped back to the wifi screen and then hit Next and it worked.
just a quick example, my car audio system doesn't support asian language, so all my japanese songs title show up as a "dot" only on the display, doesn't matter through USB or BT audio, so i need the jailbreak in order to select song from the phone and still able to use steering wheel audio control button at the same time
For the OTA update it will confirm you want to install it before it goes ahead, so it will just download first. You can cancel the install, but then the file is on your phone and ready when you want to do the update. Just go back in and click update.
For the iTunes update, you can connect your phone and start the update process. iTunes will start downloading the update file. Just unplug your phone while the file is downloading. Then you should be able to connect later, click update, and it should use the file that it already downloaded.
just wait a week or so...
some people are seeing strange bugs and the downloads are so slow making the phone nearly unusable for 5+ hours.... so why not just wait a week until everything is smoothed out? hell even a few days would probably be better than complaining and not being able to use your phone
then again I am running GM so I am biased

Successfully installed iOS7 on both my iPhone 5 and iPad 4. The iPhone was pretty quick (~20 min), but the iPad kept failing multiple times and I was finally able to download it fully a few minutes ago.
Anyone else noticing a significant lag on iPad 4?

OTA impossible
it downloaded the material but now the iphone doesn't want to update
always checking authorization online but fails every time
what a crap

I can't believe this -- iOS 7 made my iPhone 4S so incredibly slow that it is useless!!!!
And that is better than all the errors people are getting now? They don't have to do a month long rollout but the way it works now is a massive failure.
No, you'll need 11.1 even if you do an OTA update. I'm stuck on 10.7 too so I know how you feel.
I don't get all the fuss about Ive ... anyone can draw a pretty picture; it's those that create the products that deserve an award. As for the iPod nano, 5C and now the iOS, do you reckon people are now gonna stop worshiping both Ive and apple so much ... Because these latest 'design' products are a joke (designed by marketing people and obviously children who think Android looks fussy!)
