    Did it work?

    IF so... Can you tell me what version of iTunes you used and if you are using MAC/Windows

    I was starting to have high doubts that I'd be stuck in this damn BETA 2.0 firmware and wouldn't be able to do anything until it was updated to 2.1.

    Small problem though.. an error came up (1604 I think it was?) and now I'm stuck in recovery mode.. what should I do?!

    Actually, patience means nothing to me, so I went out on a limb and tried something else.

    My fellow Mac users, you'll have to bite your tongue and do this on a Windows computer. It would not, for the life of me, work on my MacBook Pro, but I brought it over to my HP and guess what? I am not running 1.1.4. Phew.

    Tomorrow I'm going to buy a prepaid card and actually pay for these things. All I want is Monkey Ball! lol.

    Yup. I'm pretty sure it's a fool proof method. The 5 times I tired on my Mac that didn't work, versus the 1 time I tried on my Windows computer that did work, pretty good proof.

    Ok Mac users, you may now start bowing :p.

    Wow I can't believe I spent 5 hours trying this in OS X when I could have only spent 10 minutes on windows :|
