HAHA. The first day I installed the iOS7 Beta on my phone, I walked over to a buddy of mine who loved WebOS and told him, "Hey check this out, I have WebOS on my iPhone!" He got a good laugh out of that.

iTunes 11.1 is now available. Gotta go to the website to get it, upgrading through iTunes isn't picking it up.

Will upgrade once I get home. Need to connect the phone to the computer to back it up, delete some shit I don't need etc....

Also will be good to back up now in preparation for the 5s

It's going from 1 hour remaining, to 4, to 2, to 1, to 3. Lol

I'd download a direct IPSW if possible.

My connection here at work blows. At home I'm sure it would be twice as fast.

Started mine at 1:12pm est and was working but then failed about 1/3rd of the way through, now fails immediately when I try. Updated to itunes 11.1 manually (even that failed to download via app store)and it only shows 6.1.3 as the latest.

Looking for direct links to download through browser...

iTunes refused to even acknowledge iOS 7 even after my phone had so I said, "Screw you" and now I'm downstairs camped out next to the WiFi router. So close I can smell it!!
