Sort of....yesterday morning, I downloaded the pre-release software and ran the upgrade from my home computer (Macbook Pro). This is where my music library is. I noticed that my apps were running a lot slower than they normally did and when I got in to work this morning, I saw a few posts about how the pre-release file had debug code in it that may make apps run slow. Doh!

So, I ran iTunes on my work desktop (Windows PC), connected the phone and told it to Check for Update. I got the message back that my iPhone had the latest version (2.0). So, I told iTunes to Restore. At that point, I got a dialog asking if I wanted to backup my phone and I said to back it up. It then gave me a dialog saying it would put 2.0 on my phone and listed some of the new features. I clicked OK and iTunes downloaded a new file and did the upgrade from that file. Before the upgrade, it backed up my phone onto my work PC so when the upgrade eventually completed, it asked me if I wanted to restore from that backup. I said Yes and all is ok, except no music but I'll put that back on when I get home to my Music Library.

Everything is fine. All the info is there. Of course I can to re-synch my music/video files from my iTunes back onto the iPhone, but my contacts, info, etc. was all on there.

Downloaded my first app to test it out.

I'm on the east coast where it is 1:35 p.m. and while ITunes updated, my phone says there is no update available.

If Apple released the 2.0 up-date yesterday todays problems wouldn't be as bad. Apple knew today was going to be a crazy day they made it that way.

You're right. Some loyalty to the folks who bought it first would have been nice. Espcially since unless we want to pay considerably more for the new one (if we are under a current contract), we'll have to wait.

The software update last week would have been excellent.
