this has to be one of the most aggravating and frustrating "apple" experiences in a LONG time... of course it is all based on MY expectations... :)
 
Glad there's a sneaky download update available. Already paid for the January update and my iMac's graphics card is dodgy. I relish a chance to stick it to the man.
 
Waiting the whole morning, clicking on "Update", but nothing happened.

A few minutes ago, iTunes finally showed me there's an update available and I clicked on "More Information" which was followed by the massage "Store temporaly unavailable". After that it showed me again 1.1.4 was the latest version.

After clicking a hundred times again it's now the same: 2.0 available but I can't connect to the store.

I'm in Germany.
 
I'm in North Jersey and I still don't have an update. It's 8:58 A.M. is any body else having the same problem in this area?

I'm also in North Jersey, and I have not been notified of an update. However, I have not been checking religiously either. I'm just waiting for the link on Apple's website to go live...

i'm in Boston, and i got it straight from iTunes without even being asked to pay for it about 50 minutes ago.
 
i don't know about you guys, but I just updated to 2.0 and I'm stuck with an iPhone that can only call for emergency with a usb picture pointing to an itunes icon.

This is extremely frustrating as I have a lot to do today and my phone is crucial for communication.

I am totally screwed if I lost everything on my iPhone.

I'm also getting the "Accessing iTunes Store...." message in iTunes and it's just trying to load i guess...

BEWARE!

:(
 
Downloading fine here now on the east coast.

Did a download only and will install later when I don't have to be on the phone!

Seems to be a 6-8 minute download for me. 218.2MB

BTW passed by the Apple store in Bethesda, MD 1/2 hour ago. Must be a line of 200+ people.
 
It's getting better now! But after waiting say thirty seconds it says store is busy again!

it'll load. give it time.

but on that note, why are you posting in here? this forum is about the iPod Touch firmware
 
Okaaaaaay, what the hell have I done?

For sh*ts and giggles while I'm waiting for my iTunes to decide to let me update, I decided to see what happens when I click Restore. So, I did. And it restored me with an iPod that claims to have 1.1.4 in place, but is missing all the 1.1.4 apps. Their locations on the home screen are empty - as in there's a space for them, in the places I had positioned them, and all my web bookmarks are in place, but the 1.1.4 apps are not visible.

WTF?
