iPhone 2.0 firmware release date hidden under our noses

Ive tried it too Eripoll... How do we get this update to work mine says check till July 18th .....Rrrrrrr can someone help?
Thanks

The update worked great, however, my mail app crashes every time I open it. Is there a fix for this yet?

For some time now iTunes has told me it will check for an update on 7/10/08. It doesn't update this date like it usually does when I check for update on another day.

Makes sense that they would update the day before the 3G launch to reduce load on launch day.

Apple is still stating that access to .Mac Bookmarks ends on June 30, 2008 via the following link. This is what I originally saw soon after the WWDC that I thought had been deleted. I was mistaken.

Is there a way to filter out posts by a specific TUAW blogger?

This is by far no a useless post, many of the TUAW staff were speculating that the App Store would come earlier than July 11th. After hearing the last TalkCast with people saying the 8th, I had to send this tip in. Now everyone knows for sure, with no arguing, that 2.0, as well as iPhone 3G, and iTunes 7.7 are coming on July 11th, 2008.

Steve's keynote means nothing since the press release came out after and supersedes or clarifies anything he said. 2.0 will come out July 11. You can all bicker over what "early July" means.... or when Steve mentioned "late June." It's out when it comes out but Apple's press releases are rarely wrong when they mention exact dates.

Does anyone here actually develop software? Apparently nobody has ever heard of shipping delays. Even Microsoft—arguably among the biggest developers ever—couldn't ship Vista on time. These things happen all the time.

I agree with James, why wouldn't the games, software, ect. sync to your new device just like they do with all your other purchases... Think People!

It was never my intention to provide "hard" evidence, as I'm not an attorney. I was simply making my own prediction. More than anything, it's just wishful thinking on my part, as I'm growing very tired of waiting for the App Store.

So you are saying that either the firmware is going to come out the 11th or its not... great reporting.
