Apple has said that there iTunes activation servers have gone down, I guess this is why everyone gets an error message when trying to download iPod firmware 2.0.

Apple said there trying to find a solution

So the version you downloaded worked fine?

iTunes still hasn't fixed the problem with it

Download that, the newer version of 2.0 is a developer version with loads of debug code in that slows it down.

Once its downloaded, hold shift then press restore and select the downloaded firmware file. It may take a while but its worth it. The apps are a rip though!! Band is like £5 :/

The torrent page says do a restore to 1.1.4 firmware but I didn't and it worked fine.

Used the firmware that was leaked this morning. =)

Cool new features with this one. Also, a screen capture feature is built in with the 2.0 firmware. Just hold down the Menu button and press the Sleep button and your screenshot will appear in the Photos app. =) Neat stuff.

I am going back to 1.1.4 Jailbreak now, I can't stand paying for the 2 apps I want... when I can get 200 more for free on Installer.

2.0 does include Jan update.

Apple must have lost loads of customers. Most of the people I know who have touches have got it illegally when they otherwise would have bought it if it was out this morning.

Not really. They will have annoyed customers but they wouldn't really "loose them" Its a common mistake to learn from, don't release hardware and software on the same day.
