Apple Releases the iPod Touch 2.0 Firmware Update

[sarawanan]

Wouldnt accept my damn itunes card, had to pay with credit card!!

Same, this means I can't get 2.0 after waiting. Why stop accepting iTunes cards as a form of payment for a firmware update?

Just wasted my time buying a prepaid card today

 

[drumpat01]

anyone know if this is the same update that people found earlier?

I'm 99% sure it's the same.

I bought a $15 gift card yesterday, added it to my account, and just used it a few minutes ago to buy the update, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be working for you guys.

Is the build number of the paid upgrade "2.0 (5A347)"?

 

[Spades]

I guess it's time to upgrade from 1.1.1, eh?

I got a $15 card too and it worked.

Do you have a credit card associated with the account?

Do you have a credit card associated with the account?

Yeah, I used a CC once.

Mine has installed and is now on the "Restoring iPod music and videos" phase. I think that might be the last step!

done syncing my apps

All of my erratic feelings towards Apple vanished when this finally downloaded. The Kool-Aid tastes great!

 

[drumpat01]

What is the build number for those of you who have just bought it??

 

[Dmac77]

You've been up for almost 60 hours? I really don't know what to say to that.. Maybe you should have slept.

Hey what can I say, I'm a super geek.

 

[TheBonk]

Anyone find any bugs from the official 2.0?

 

[pixies4ever]

OK, it's downloading!!!!! I swear, if there is one bug with 2.0, I'll be on the phone bitching out some customer service representative! I've been up for almost 60 hours without even laying down waiting for Mobile Me and this, it had better be perfect Apple!

I think maybe you had too much caffeine. 60 hours are you

You'll miss the nice original iPod Touch dock. I know I do.

Same here. We're just highly impatient geeks.

[firefinder24]

Argh!

GRRRRR - i keep getting the following error, "the ipod could not be restored. An unknown error occured (6)." This is my 5th time now.......

Actually, all that I have drank is caffeine free diet coke.

I am glad that is the same one. I got tired of waiting and got it the "other way" earlier, seems to be working fine though.

 

[techage14]

Hmm, sorry, but too late.

ditto.

Well, if you wake to a steaming pile of metal and plastic on your desk in the morning, you'll have a definitive answer!

 

[zn15]

If you downloaded it the free way, will you still be able to get it the official way? And if so, how?
