iPhone/iPod Touch v2 Update to Hit Late June?
Hi all - just blogged about how I think that we might see the (iPod Touch update at least) version 2 update sooner than 'early July'.

After having a poke around Apples site a couple of days back, I noticed an App Store ad down the bottom of the iPod Touch specs page, saying that itll hit June 27.

Interesting. It could be a pre-release so that any problems with the App Store are ironed out before the 3G iPhone goes live. It's going to be a big release, and the App Store is a key feature, so they won't want anything to go wrong.

Sorry if I'm a little behind the times - will iPhone v1 users be able to upgrade, or will it be just included on the new v2 iPhones?

iPhone v1 owners will get a free upgrade to v2, but iPod Touch users will have to pay $10USD

App store available on June 27th?
This story from <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2008/06/11/app-store-available-on-june-27th/">TUAW</a> seems to show that the App store may be available earlier than expected.
The earlier the better, I say!  |

That's a very good question, one that I'm not sure has been answered.

Jobsy said that all the applications will be Secured by FreePlay DRM which is the same as what iTunes music uses, how does that work? |

He did say Fairplay and the closest thing to Apps we have right now are the iPod games which are 5 iPods for one purchased game, if that provides any indication.
