When I try to download iPod Touch 2.0, iTunes says "The iTunes store is temporairly unavaibable..." Help?

How and Where do you even download it? Same problem here.

Everyone, I finally found an active link. I don't if it's because apple's servers are back online, but here it is. Go to the bottom of the article and press on itunes store link.

its 10:02 pm central time. and its still not working! this is really annoying!!!!!

Apple's Activation Server has crashed... as well as... The iPod Touch 2.0 Upgrade service on the Apple Server. From all the active downloads, Apple was overloaded and "Some How" the server crashed. I have contacted Apple HQ and they have informed to. "Try again tonight (July 11th, 2008) and or tomorrow, the problem should be resolved" There is no estimated time "wait" for the 'Apple Servers' to be fixed, or whatever the HECK the problem is! I'm also a iPod Touch owner. I was just so mad when I found all of this information out. I thought at first my computer was having problems, and I was wrong. ***This Time its APPLE'S Fault*** There is one other way "If your desperate" You can download the 2.0 Beta version... (Beta - in testing, not final version) If you would like to get it, go on You Tube and Search: "iPod Touch 2.0 Beta" If I was you, I would check back with Apple's website tomorrow (July 12th, 2008) Hopefully they will boot-up the servers by 8PM - 9PM PST (July 11th, 2008) and all the people who keep bugging the Apple servers who keep clicking the "Buy Now" button for the 2.0 download. Will get to download it and that will be the end of the story for them. So Probably a couple million people will download it. And it shouldn't overwhelm Apples dumb servers. DOWNLOAD FIRMWARE 2.0 AT*: http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/whatsnew.html and click "Buy Now" it will cost $9.99 USD *Before downloading upgrade to iTunes 7.7: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

I called Apple earlier and they are jam packed because everyone is trying to download the software. They just said be patient and keep trying on and off.
