Ok, here is the news.

The day before the 3G iPhone is to be released and Apple has given uswhat we have been waiting for: the Appstore and Frimware 2.0. Both of these come straight out of iTunes 7.7 and will affect us all. So far, some of the apps are free, but there are a lot that aren’t. Take a look at them. There are a lot of familiar names, some actually charging (freakin sellouts) for their apps. Is this the end of jailbreaking?

Speaking of jailbreaking, 2.0 is not jailbreakable yet. Actually, I am not completely sure of that yet. I am running WinPwn on the firmware now. It probably won’t work. Come on, it just “officially” came out today. Let the hackers work on it. Zibri (ZiPhone) has been working on it for a while now. My guess is he will show the first signs of a jailbreak.

To all, a word of caution. If you upgrade your iPods, it might be really had to get them back to a 1.1.4 jailbroken state. Plus, the new firmware is still a little buggy. Choose wisely whether or not to upgrade.

   It’s all good. I appreciate the work you guys are doing. If I have to, then so be it. Considering that Apple is screwing the iPod Touch users, I’d rather donate to you than them. Keep up the good work.

   for those who want 2.0 firmware for ipod touch without paying just download it here http://content.info.apple.com/ProtectedAsset/iPod/osx/bundles/061-4957.20080711.Fr43E/iPod1,1_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw and restore to that but i believe need 1.1.4 before hand. Don’t bother paying for this when can get it free make a stand if you wish to update do it for free through this. Yes this is 5A347 and not 5A345 as other leaks have been.

   just remember only if you wish to update to 2.0 you will lose your jailbreak until otherwise option is available to jailbreak 2.0 or firmware switch.

   Happy updating. Remember, don’t pay for it, make a stand and do it for free.
