Why can't you? Just browse to the firmware using iTunes and recover your iPod with it. Just make sure you make a backup of the ipod's content. Also there is a 2.2 firmware now so, I am not exactly sure why you're sticking with 2.0.
idk all the links i tried with firmware updates... all havnt worked... all say errors when done trying to update ... any1 have a good link with a 2.2 firmware ? or.. if go to the jailbreak sticky does that come w the updated firmware

It has almost every version of firmware for both the ipod touch and the iphone. I didn't know this site, but some googling doesn't hurt u know...
yepp.. i got it... i had to shift + restore instead of update and it worked... thanks anyways guys.. now i can get some free apps =-) ... next is jailbreak ... any1 got a good link for 2.2 firmware jailbreak
this guide is actually written for the iphone, but you should be able to make it out. Using the same program but just chosing the ipod touch. And yes, the 2.2 has been jailbroken for the 1g. *crosses fingers for the 2g *
