Ok, the iPhone 2.0 firmware (actually 1.2.0) is out, and the app store is up and only works with 2.0 firmware and iTunes 7.7 but I won’t do it. Not yet anyway. I am waiting for a jailbreak solution for 2.0 or some additions to the app store before I upgrade. I have been using Zibri’s ZiPhone up to now and actually have quite a few apps that I use on a daily basis.

So, am I just too cheap to pay for apps? No, that’s not it at all. In fact, if the apps I needed were on the store I would upgrade and buy them (and possibly have some support options) and be done with it. While there are some apps that are in the store that I currently use (Shopping List, Twinkle, Book Reader) there are others that aren’t (Terminal, anyone?).

So, until I can jailbreak 2.0 or until the app store catches up with what I actually use, no dice.
