Well it essentially turns the iPod touch into a motion sensitive wii like games console, not bad for £5.99 i'd say

Be careful though as it's very buggy and has caused a lot of problems

I had trouble getting my apps to work and it stopped playing music but I took some advice from here and got it working again but when I researched the problem on the net it appears many people have had trouble with iTunes 7.7 and the 2.0 upgrade. I wouldn't say don't get it just be aware of the problems

I haven't had any problems with 2.0 on my iPhone, I would imagine that it's much the same on the iPod touch, seeing as it's the same OS.

Downloaded 2.0 yesterday and installed onto an iTouch - no problem. Have also put three games from iTunes on - Super Monkey Ball, Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D and Pinball so now have a hand held game console for the holiday.

I feel sorry for people who paid as there is a (i guess) legal way to obtain the update for free.

someone found what I guess you could call a loophole where itunes downloaded the update and restored my iPod with the FULL update without spending a penny..... I'm back on 1.1.4 now didn't like 2.0 too buggy

Well worth it for me, the apps are great and there are loads of games and utilities to download, made a brilliant device even better....

Although I have to agree that I keep coming across a few bugs but then I found similar bugs in the last firmware.
