Software update: What is the first date that I can buy the iPod Touch from Amazon such that I won't also have to pay for the OS 3.0 software update?

As soon as Amazon runs out of stock of the OS 2.xx iPod Touch, they should start stocking those with 3.0. Might be a while. I got mine long after OS 2.2.1 was released, and it came with OS 1.1 in it! By long, I mean many months.

Yes, you can update it for free through applestore. I haven't because Im not sure if all the programs I use have updated. But you shouldn't have any problems with that.

I would guess that you would receive the 10.5 version. This is what Apple has done in the past.

You need to upgrade your operating system on the iPod touch.It costs $10 to upgrade. After you do that, you can install I talk.

WOW i just noticed that, its the only reason I didn't go ahead and place my order, can anyone confirm this? i get free shipping here and no tax, but apple wants to charge me tax, so i came to amazon, but i don't want to wait a month.

Amazon has to provide an estimated ship date. The open-ended delivery date will drive me to cancel my amazon order and go with apple.com. Customer's who ordered priority shipping must be very annoyed with Amazon right now. And the current $499.99 list price for the 500 GB hard drive is misleading and unfair (and a scam).

It says " requires iPod Nono with software v1.3 or later or iPod Nono (aluminum) with software v1.1 or later and iTunes 7 or later" hope that helps

Apparently the Options Plus versions (with the I-Pod dock) aren't being sold right now and won't be again until the first of next year. Does anyone know where I can get one with the I-Pod dock...preferably in the orange color? I would be willing to buy one second hand if I could just find one!!!

I can tell you that my recent order did not have iLife 11 installed. Apple offers an iLife "uptodate" program where you can order the update for a nominal fee. ($6.99) The problem is... Apple has not accepted the receipt i printed from Amazon because it does not include a part number. Amazon customer service has yet to provide me with a solution...

It'll update. Mine came with iOS 7. I think it depends on your devices actual date of manufacture.

I did the same thing ordered on the 12th @ $299. Hopefully the iPod will qualify for Amazon's pre-order price guarantee where we get the lowest price the item sells for, since we did pre-order them. Mine has shipped out already so I can't cancel and re-order.

I'm within a mile and a half of a Costco, Best Buy, Apple store, and Circuit City. It's 9 AM. they all open in an hour. I think I'll be able to get a Touch at one of those stores. :) To heck with Amazon. They blew it big time with me, by showing "In Stock" when I ordered, on the 16th. I don't care about engraving and I know Apple is hard nosed about returns, so I'll double check the Return policy of the store I buy from, just in case the Touch doesn't work out well for me. IF Apple didn't have an automatic restocking fee, I'd just buy from them...

It appears to be the same. This isn't shipped directly from Amazon, though, so it's up to the third party seller to decide on their shipping costs. Don't forget to add sales tax. Apple seems to be the better deal right now.

The 6.1.6. I've heard too many problems about the latest updates. Also I had to delete the cloud every year because it block my music from downloading that I don't buy from iTunes.

Yeah, what's up with that? I just bought it for my sister's birthday and Amazon is telling me that it'll ship in November??? Forget it, I'm canceling the order and buying it from Apple.

I've asked the same thing myself. I have both formats (apple & amazon). I wish I can consolidate it with one software download, be it itunes or amazon unbox but I don't think this will ever happen.

Yeah, but they just lowered the price $5 here on Amazon for the Family Pack. I ordered mine from Apple and although it will be nice to get it on Friday so I can do a clean install on my main computer over the weekend, I might have been willing to wait a few days to get it and save almost $10 (since Apple pops you for sales tax as well). Sounds like the classic "trade-off".
