[chescaleigh]

i have a completely unmodded first generation phone. i upgraded to the 2.0 software this morning and now my phone is dead! it will only let me make an emergency call and when i plug it into the computer itunes says it cannot complete my request and there was an error with the itunes store. now i'm completely late for work trying to fix this and i'm freaking out. i guess apple is forcing me into buying the new 3g. help!!

Don't worry, the iTunes store is currently unavailable. Everyone is stuck at this screen.

Just got off the phone with ATT apple support. You are going to love this. Because version 1 phones need to conect to the att and apple servers to complete the 2.0 software update and all the new i phone activations that are going on the servers are overloaded. Sounds like last June all over again. They told me it could take hours before our phones work again. They also told me to keep it conected to Itunes the entire time and it will automatically do it. This is crap. I am out of business until they get their s--t together.. Hope this helps
