While reading info about the new iPhone 3G on the o2 uk website i found this:

If you have an existing iPhone you can still enjoy many of the new features by upgrading your software to version 2.0 from 11 July through iTunes.

you will also notice that if you open itunes it will tell you version 7.7 is available. I can only assume this is so because iPhone 2.0 firmware will require new features in itunes!!!! I would get itunes asap to avoid having to download it while servers are under load at apple. Which would mean waiting longer for the update for your original iPhone!!! NOOOOOOO

Ill let you know once i get the iPhone 2.0 firmware (which i will prob be staying up for tonight!)

http://www.spreadfirefox.com seems to be down… the cool people at hak5 on the mintirc.net network have a link http://downloadcounter.sj.mozilla.com/ which shows the ammount of downloads total and per country for Firefox 3. I hope to get through to spreadfirefox so i can get my copy today. If your having similar issues comment!
