For some reason I thought the 8.x versions of iTunes were only compatible with 2.1+ iPod Touch/iPhone software. Seems I was wrong, though . I was already "pretending" to run firmware 2.2.1 on my iTouch through the FWChanger app (while I'm still running 2.0.2), and your iTunes 8 version works like a charm. So yes, I can finally confirm you did a great job! Thanks for the hard work, and sorry for bothering you. Cheers, Robin.
