So, Firmware 2.0

Daniel93 · 06-24-2008, 03:44 PM

I was wondering, What do I have to do to upgrade my Ipod touch to 2.0 I know it costs like 20 bucks, but I need the information.

The cost is $9.95 I'm pretty sure.

Don't think anyone knows just yet exactly what the process will be for Touch users - assume once you pay your money, you'll get a very similar update file to the one iPhone users get ...

Can anybody list the new stuff that Ipod will get?

mobileme syncing, mail, calendar, maps, exchange support... maybe more.

for what it's worth i think it's crappy you have to pay to get it.

10 bucks isn't much....

The 2.0 software for the iPod Touch is exactly the same, except the pricing. While $10 is a bit steep, I'd gladly pay for it due to all the features it adds, providing I had a Touch.

10 dollars is infinitely more than i will have to pay to get it on my iphone... i'd consider that a lot.

I think the vast majority of the 2.0 features, plus Exchange / MobileMe support etc. should be on it, but think some of the things like GPS are not going to be on the Touch ...

True, but if I have to pay $10 to get the AppStore, so be it.

Oh, absolutely. If I was a Touch owner, I'd pay that no worries. The 2.0 software and the App Store are the really huge moves forward, much moreso than just the 3G model IMO ...
