What do you mean by protected? iTunes has to dl it somehow --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Geohot (talk) 02:20, August 5, 2008 (UTC). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.

itunes probably checks to see if u bought it somehow... --The preceding unsigned comment was added by ChronicDev (talk) 02:35, August 5, 2008 (UTC). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
o yea, forgot you had to pay for it :-) i wonder if the iPhone one would run easily? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Geohot (talk) 03:46, August 5, 2008 (UTC). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
funny you should mention that. my friend np1011357 got a 2.0 fw working, but I don't think people are brave enough to test any further
I do know you have to be pwned for it to work though... --The preceding unsigned comment was added by ChronicDev (talk) 05:34, August 5, 2008 (UTC). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
I've never had any luck myself, but I suppose anything's possible :-)
As for the actual word 'protected', the URLs in the XML are prefixed protected://. Perhaps those URLs are still of value?
BTW, as far as I know, having a 2.0 beta installed will still allow "free" upgrades to 2.0. --Haldo 13:39, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
After reading a post on Zibri's blog today, I tested (and confirmed) that the iPod touch 2.0.1 firmware could be downloaded from Apple's servers. Should this URL be provided on this page? -Dialexio 00:29, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
That is a tough question... I may have to defer to geohot for that. It is unfortunately very much a gray area. Maybe we link to the file linked by Zibri? --Haldo 20:47, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
well if its on apples servers, then we are not really 'hosting' warez, not could we be connected to hosting it at all, unlike if someone uploaded it to rapidshare, then there would be reason to believe we were involved. although its a community wiki, for something like this, it is geohot's call. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by ChronicDev (talk) 00:35, August 6, 2008 (UTC).

My thinking is this. If Apple sells it, no download link should be posted here. But perhaps a link to Zibri's page about it in the resources area. ~geohot

WOW

ffs guys. i was hoping someone would figure this out. Anyone at all could just type 'strings iTunes' on the iTunes binary, and see that there is a link saying http://itunes.com/version, then another directly after is '?touchUpdate=yes". It's not even that hard if u disassembeld it in IDA --The preceding unsigned comment was added by ChronicDev (talk) 18:54, September 23, 2008 (UTC).
