1. Steve Jobs announces 1.1.3 firmware for Iphone at MacWorld. +1
2. 2hrs later, its actually available in itunes in the uk. +1
3. Installation leaves me with (the dreaded) error 1604. -5
4. Waste 4 hrs trying to fix. -5
5. Finally find the answer in a discussion forum +5 
6. Breathe a sigh of relief that the backup in itunes works well. +1


And for those wondering what the fix is, it involves navigating to the update file directly (via windows explorer) and executing it.

Hopefully something in the update will make it all worthwhile! (still no bloody cut and paste :)
Must say, its taken the shine off my newly acquired liking for all things apple - I'd have expected it from Microsoft, but I was hoping for some of that seamless experience. Maybe I'd have to buy a Mac for that... and I'm not quite ready for that (yet).
