Sooooooo, with all the fun of the App store being open my husband started scouring the news sites to see if anyone had any rumors as to when they would release the 2.0 software update that would allow you to use these little apps. Quite a few of the sites were talking about a hidden link that you could download the 2.0 software and force iTunes to use it to update your phone. A little bit scary but after reading that the guys over at arstechnica.com had not only downloaded it but successfully updated some of their phones made me jump in with both feet.What do you think about del.icio.us?
