I am going to the Apple Store tomorrow to help my sister buy a macbook for college (I know I'm crazy for going on the iPhone launch day!). My question is this: If she gets the free (after rebate) iPod touch, what are the chances that she will/can get the 2.0 software without forking over the extra $10?
Got a tip for us?

Based upon previous protocol, you should be eligible for a rebate covering the cost of the upgrade.
I will give it a few days for all the stock to update to 2.0..
You dont have a big chance of getting a 2.0 fw on a ipod tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice. I have to imagine there would be some sort of rebate program for people who buy off the older stock. I guess we'll find out this afternoon!
Well, just got back from the Apple Store in Troy, MI...what a zoo! Lucky me I was able to bypass the line to buy the computer, printer, and iPod! Anyways, because they were so busy I didn't want to press the issue, but I was told I'd need to pay the fee to upgrade, even though it was released this morning. I think a simple call to Apple Customer Support would resolve this. I'll update after I talk to Apple.
