iTunes 7.7 - iPhone Firmware 2.0 - AppStore - Available Online

Looks like Apple was busy last night getting ready for the big launch of the 3G iPhone tomorrow. They have started off by releasing iTunes 7.7 that is required to install firmware 2.0 on your iPhone or iPod Touch. With iTunes 7.7 released it would have only been a little while before 2.0 firmware was released, but before that could even happen, the iPhone 2.0 Firmware was found on Apples Servers for direct download. You can download it here.
“Use iTunes 7.7 to sync music, video, and more with iPhone 3G, and download applications from the iTunes Store exclusively designed for iPhone and iPod touch with software version 2.0 or later. Also use the new Remote application for iPhone or iPod touch to control iTunes playback from anywhere in your home — a free download from the App Store.”
BUT please do not install it until you get news from the Dev Team about PWNED or an unlock, as the current version of PWNED does not recognize the 2.0 firmware. It’s not quote the rumored 5A345 that was rumored to be the final firmware shipped in iPhone 3G’s. It’s 5A347.
While the AppStore isn’t live yet, you can click on any of the links below to see the AppStore online (thanks to iClarified for the links)
UPDATE: I updated my iTunes to 7.7, and I saw the AppStore, but iTunes asked me to verify my billing info and I did and then the AppStore dissappeared. Apple has probably blocked the AppStore from unsupported countries based on your creditcard info and IP address - if so - Apple you suck - I have an iPod touch and would like to buy Apps for it too..
Update: I got back into the AppStore and have successfully downloaded (purchased) the free Apps available (remote app of course)
Update: I am restoring an iPhone I had with “BSD minor, BSD major” error from currupted baseband, it would usually get error 1101 in itunes, and was pretty much useless. lets see if 2.0 can fix
