UPDATE Sept 04: Visit this iTouch forum
UPDATE PIC:

Thank you all for leaving comments, if you find any links please let me know.

Let us know if this works! I’m downloading the file but I’m a bit scared to try it.
So have you tried it yet?
did it work i might do it
@derek: IT WORKS!
can you please host this somewhere else download speeds are horrible
If “Guys I upgraded via link submitted here, works just fine it is 2.0 valid one. Weird thing is I haven’t been asked to pay 9.99$ which I really want to do in order to support apple and my apple friends. So i might restore and do it via iTunes once the 2.0 is available ”
is true you would remove the link.
-Owl
could u host the file on another fast server….?
are you sure about that?
@Matthew B: sorry i cant because i am not hosting even this link. I downloaded mine in about 12minutes my speeds are 10mbps download
@Ted: I am @ work right now can’t prove it sorry. But works why would I say it works? btw ill post picture on mc rumor of my itunes that all i can do
ok thanks live cruch .sorry . its better for sure. I am downloading it right now
@Ted: Here is my upgrade prof http://i38.tinypic.com/2eujrrc.jpg
weird….. it is a apple server……… a mistake ?
How do you install the file? I see several people say to hold the Shift key and click Update button but this does not work for me. Should it be hold Shift key and click the Restore button instead?
@LarryInAz: NO, hold the shift key and press at the same time on UPDATE button! it will ask you “where is the file” after that just install it.
thanks so it does not screw up rght?
On my mac keyboard I held the OPTION key and then pushed the Update button. It’s updating now…
@ LarryInAZ and @live crunch
For Macs, you hold Option instead of Shift.
is it the orginal firmware that ipod release?
@Ted: I think so, it says 2.0 on my screen, and few people said so too. Use to be beta link around but now this one is official. I bet they are going to remove it soon. LoL
@Ben Hummel: My bad Ben,… yeah i did this on my windows not Mac today
my bad !
you have screenie of some applications
yeah I am going to download this. but its so long.. i got 40kb/sec
@Ted: When I downloaded about 2h ago was at 340kbps , remember right now visitors count to this post is 2145
so yeah , its going to be slow.
@Ted: I just took picture with my phone , i will update this post just for you ted
you are skeptical fella. aren’t you?
just making sure bro.. got no insurance on my ipod.. hehe i did not buy it . and its sad :C
Does this work on a windows pc because I heard that people were having trouble updating on a pc but not a mac? I just want to make sure because I really don’t want my ipod to break.
@Mike: I did it via windows vista:) see my comments
thank you.. hope it works for me… where you at CA?
Thanks for checking! I hope this works because apple is really screwing this up, that they don’t even deserve my $10 anymore. Still have over an hour of download time still
Ya screw apple
no way there getting my 10 bucks now
apple making money on us. wtf. hehehe.. and they can’t even bring us v2 software in the right time. lols
hey mathew any update on your itouch?
I’m sorry for all of my mistakes in giving my apple customers heart attacks and heart aches. I will be stepping down since I am a dumbass effective after I figure this stupid apple server error thing. My bad.
I downloaded it, but it downloaded into a folder, and when I do option+click on update, it opens the window to select the file, but as I click on the file, it just opens to another folder with more folders inside. What did I do wrong?
PS: I’m on a mac.
I used shift restore and that worked fine.
live do you know how to backup your version
Hey guys..
Apple screwed up..
Can’t someone host the file on a faster server?
P L E A S E!! I’m only getting 25kbs
Is this gonna hurt my iPod
@SK: No
@Ryann: Go to the folder you downloaded the software to.
@Steve Jobs: Yeah I bet steve jobs would come here and say that. He might put me in his apple jail because of doing this for you!
Is your youtube working because now I’m hearing reports that youtube is working on 2.0?
I have 10 minutes to go till I get this.
Ill report back and tell how it went
Ok I downloaded this version. iTunes continues to give me a error occured message (-6) or (-4). I know the servers for the store is down. but what does this have to do with the already downloaded firmware? The update clunks out after the the restore and goes back into recovery mode where it bounces me back to 1.1.4. Inaddition when I try and sync my legal January update it says error occurs for that as well. I’m going to restart maybe that will shake some bugs lose.
Also I will upload the file to a higher bandwidth site to help with the increasing amount of downloads on the link above. Cause the download speeds just keep getting slower …
maybe i could upload it in the torrent.. hey mathew want to seed with me?
Thanks alot ! its worked on the iPod touch 32GB .
I’m from Japan. and The UPDATE is not ready on iTunes , so I’m happy to get it even befor the Official one.
Thank you again .
uggh im down to 30 kbps lol getting worse and worse
ill upload it to a file hosting site(if I can because 100mb limit on most of them) then after that sure ill try to seed this thing
seeding may be difficult if its just 2
my max upload speed is 200kbps
how many percent? are you getting done i am at 87% now
94%
thats nice tell me update when you register it alright
Also just to let yous know they said they will be delaying the official ipod touch download till tomorrow.
Its just a rumor or so…. supposedly someone called apple etc
don’t know if this is true or not.
Heya
cant you sharedrive this??or torrent this..
my speed is at 4.1Kbs..it will take 14hrs…
what about this then? this is from the apple server somehow isn’t it?
okay i have found a file hosting site that will allow downloads speeds at 2 mbps yaa megabytes well that’s my max download speed anyways
Ill upload it on there it will probably take about 25-30 minutes to upload this big file I hope this works …..
Lols. hope not. so can you check the youtube if it is working?
My youtube button no longer works. I get an error that I need to sync with iTunes when it is connected to the internet.
mathew do you know how to backup the version?
what do you mean backup like how to apply it to the ipod
yaa that i know
ill check if youtube works aswell
backup my previous version so that when things goes wrong i can restore it.
Totally worked for me guys! I love this, now I can quit complaining about waiting!
well hmm
you can always put the ipod in recovery mode and then itunes will do a restore on it
I doubt this will break the ipod in anyway
aw.. have you tested youtube?
how do you make it in recovery mode lols
well it isnt even installing properly so blah…
not sure why ill keep trying it could just be that i need a restart who knows
ill try to update mine
yaa im getting error 1611 while installing it
maybe others will have better luck
ill still upload it to a hosting site
@Ted: will do
live can you do youtube. somepeople say you can’t
ted did you get it to work
its said preparing ipod for software update
do you got that message too?
it takes too long i hope it does not screw up
well if it screws it up just tell me ill tell you how to restore
no mine went fast
about 20 seconds in it reported the error
i got updat ipod software now
also for others 15 minutes before its uploaded to other server
ya its probally working for you
whats the problem with you?.. try re update bro
@Ted: It should automatically backup your ipod , at least my iTunes did. So even if you screw up you get back to where you ware. I can’t check on youtube at this moment give me 15-20 minutes when I get out of work ill find some wifi
@Ted btw i clicked on youtube “no internet connection” it works fine no errors.
haha.
matthew, you started uploading as soon as i hit 35 min remaining.
lol, i should have waited, oh well.
i will try i can restore it right? if something screw up?
i hear that apple is taking so long cuz they are revising the update so if i wait will it be better??
its done ill keep you updated guys..
@chad.: You guys should of download it as soon as I posted this , my download rate was 350-415kbps
lol
6 minutes till the upload to new server completes
it better work lol
mine was like 40KB/sec and now its down to 28KB/sec

cant connect on youtube lols
@Ted:
i really could care less about youtube. haha.
im just going to use this until i can buy the real thing.
It worked!!!!!!! (besides YouTube) LOVE IT!!!!
When I hit option + update, I’m told to select a file, but I can’t select the “Ipod1,1_2″ file should I be picking something else?
Okay guys
New server link …..
You should max out on your capable download speed with this new server kk
I was downloading it at 2 mbps as a test ..
http://www.sendspace.com/file/a8pgwq
matthew, did you upload it to the new host?
cause id rather work with that than a slowly lowering speed of 28KB/sec.
oh okay, you did.
yay, its only gonna take 4 min.
Changed to DL from new host went from 40 kb/sec to 1.5 MB/sec - took about 2 minutes to DL now - thanks.
I’ll still buy the official release one but this will stop me from hitting Check Update for the rest of the afternoon.
thanks for the new link matthew b
but before i update my update my ipod i was just wondering if in order to update you lose any of the information on your ipod, like the stuff in my notes app. or if i have to restore my ipod at all? thanks in advance
@matthew,thanks for this at least better,27KBS better than the original.
But just a suggestion yeah,why not split the file?
okay, its done downloading.
and i went to itunes, held opt clicked on update, yada yada…
so i went to the file, and i clicked it bu it just opened it instead of actually clicking it,and then it had more files, and more files. lol. help?
im on a mac. if that helps.
@Matthew THANK YOU i had two hours still on the other one now i have twenty minutes : )
can anyone know how to fix youtube
okay, its done downloading.
and i went to itunes, held opt clicked on update, yada yada…
so i went to the file, and i clicked it bu it just opened it instead of actually clicking it,and then it had more files, and more files. lol. help?
im on a mac. if that helps.
I can confirm that this works. I now have 2.0 on my ipod with the app store!
can someone help me?
does your youtube works mike
When I hold down Option and click on Update, it brings up a dialog to choose but doesn’t allow me to choose the ZIP file nor a folder!??
@chad you need to remove the “.zip” just leave it as “.ipsw”
how do i do that?
@chad,go to the folder where you downloaded the file,click on the name till it is higlighted,then go to the end of it and del”.zip”
If it is there that is..
can i restore it back?
Can you please upload the file to rapidshare or another download service - Apple has deleted it, it seems, and my connection is slow!
okay thanks i did it.
first i had to compress the file into a .zip then make it a ispw
but now its saying my ipod cant be updated when i click on it.
Thanks Yasuo, that worked……sortof. I just bricked my iPod. restoring old sw now. Ouch!
who got 1.14 backup file?
what should i do?
its saying my ipod cant be updated.
Chad, I’m restoring mine back to 1.14 then trying again. Maybe you should try the same
Thank you guys!!!! works just fine…..deleted all but ehhh, for 10 dollars I can upload it again……..
@Matthew B,…… what about a second server
?
Sweet, I’m using 2.0 now with all the app goodness thanks to this page. Youtube doesn’t work, but then I rarely use it. AppStore and iTunes mobile store seems to work despite all the itunes issues with upgrades.
I am having a problem. Not sure if I am doing the install incorrectly, or whether the file is the problem. I have attempted to update the software–only to get an unknown error has occurred (1403) message. Any suggestions?
can anyone help me?
how long is the actual update supposedto take? Mine has been stuck on preparing ipod for update for a long time. Is that normal?
yeah it takes too long to update
omg….grrr……it has the same download rate like 3-4 hours before (30 KB)
can anyone help me?
its telling me my ipod cannot update.
what do i do?
@chad…
what do you mean you compressed it?
When you downloaded it the name should have ended with “.ipsw.zip”
All you needed to do was del the “.zip”
Then perform the manual upgrade,option >> update. on Itunes
OMG! It’s Done. From Start to finish is has taken nearly 2.5 hours from start downloading to just now finishing updating.
Chad had the Open safe files option ticked in Safari which uncompressed the folder. I know cause mine did the same
when i finished downloading it, and i went to go look at it,
it was just a folder.
there was no place to change .zip or anything.
so i thought i need to compress it all, and it had a .zip on that and i changed it to .ipsw
Thanks! It took about 1 hour to download at a 30-50 kbps. I just upgraded it and it works great! It deletes all of your memory though (make sure you back it up). Oh well if YouTube doesn’t work. If you really want it, get it when Apple has everything fixed
@chad..dude you are on a mac right?
so it will be in your download folder,i am downloading it now and the file name does end with .zip
Maybe your download was corrupt?
You need to ask Ted or Matthew or Nick
@chad by the way the icon should be a white lego.
@ALL: Youtube does work for me at least , I had no problems, all I had to do is have wifi and itunes open on PC (or mac) . After that for some reason it works.
I can’t view it If I shut down Itunes on my pc or mac WEIRD!… I think this is 2.0 bug…
ill just download it again.
if that doesn’t work, than i dont know..
and yes, im on a mac.
lols i got wifi on it but it did not work?
@live crunch how did you make it work
what does itunes (plugged in) means?
@All: something interesting..
For those that wants to back up,well additional backup..read below
Additional Information
The iPod touch January Software Upgrade is not included when using the iTunes backup to optical disc feature. If you would like to backup the January Software Upgrade should locate and backup the “iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa” file from the following locations:
Mac OS X:
~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Applications
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1376
i downloaded it so how do i put it on my iPod. I clicke alt and the update button. It wont let me choose any of the files
I have a WiFi connection and i’m plugged into the computer (i’m assuming that means iTunes, using a PC) and it’s still not working
@Ted: I mean plug in your ipod touch to your pc/mac open Itunes.
@Zach weird! … what do you get? error or anything? PS: I bought my ipod touch last year, no JB and only 1.1.4
@SK: I said Shift or Option button not ALT lol.
ttyl
The option button didn’t work either
@SK: So you have Mac? Click on Option hold it, click on update or restore button, window will pop up…
I litreally got my iPod this week. When I open YouTube, I still get “You must first connect to iTunes…….to enable YouTube”
yeah i did and when i choose the file it says an error occured
ok Ill try it live
@SK: What error occured?
Can some 1 with the Mac help him, I don’t have my Mac with him to tell step by step instructions.
@Zach: I had that and followed instructions, then everything was fine. But i think its 2.0 bug
@sk what error did you see?
@Yasuo it’s error 1043
oh well. Once the “official” 2.0 is released I bet someone will file host it
@sk weird error
I got an error with 0X …..
I think it is due to safari automatically decompressing the ipsw.zip file thus maybe “corrupting” it.
trying to re-download the files again with opera.
Did you use safari?
@ YAsuo
yeah i used safari and i already started re-downloading it
WOW thanks you soooo muuuuch. i was gonna pay $10 fot this now i get free and now I can buy monkey ball plus a few other stuff :D:D:D:D
@sk Pls dont use safari,use some other browser.
Let see who get there first..LOL
Does this void the warrenty?
@chad
If you are still here pls dont download via Safari.
okay, i downloaded it again
and i changed it to a .ipsw
and then i tried to update it with that, but it still wouldn’t work.
please some one help.
@ ALL: okay, so i had just figured out what was causing the youtube to not function at all and for the life of me i just couldnt let it go…
so alright, i’m feeling like a genius and now i’m here to help you all DONT DOWNGRADE JUST PAY ATTENTION!!!
1. go to the home screen, tap the settings button
2. go to wi-fi and find your internet source/connection
3. then go back to settings and then tap general
4. scroll down until you find “location service” it should be under network
5. turn the “location service” off
then go to youtube and you SHOULD be able to play videos… i’m not positive if it’ll work for ALL, but it did for me and thats why i’m here trying to help you guys out so let me know if you works….
thanks…
oh, never mind. i downloaded with opera, lets see how that works out.
okay, i started downloading it with opera.
ill see if that works, im pretty sure it will, since its downloading it in the “.ipsw” format.
I have had it on mine for a couple of hours now and it seems good. A few minor glitches, but it may be with the 2.0
To put the iPod into recovery mode, hold down the Power On/Off button and the Home button at the same time until the screen goes blank.
Now let’s see…I’ve fully downloaded this file and to apply it to my iPod Touch I just go on iTunes and press update at the same time I press and hold the shift button…?
wtf…… just 5 MB was needed and the connection disconnected… grrr-….
com on Guys can somebody please host it on another server ….
Thanks …
i held shift and clicked update and it failed and i had to restore what did i do wrong
i know how to fix the youtube problem in 345 ill try it with the 347
stay updates here guys..
well i will try it first before I tell you the guide.
@derek can you be more clear?
What do you mena you failed,at which stage?
and restore to 1.1.4?
For some reason, it just started working :)!
Hey guys,
do you know a solution for a problem with “Youtube”, because I still get error?
excelente aportacion, ahora a bajar a ver si sirve… por cierto, alguien lo sube a rapidshare?

@xKiKix: Thank you! I just added that as an update section above in post.
http://content.info.apple.com/ProtectedAsset/iPod/osx/bundles/061-4957.20080711.Fr43E/iPod1,1_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw
for anybody who would rather download from apple
Heya
Ok guys i have redownloaded the file via Opera.
So the problem is with Safari,so heads up dont use safari or any browser that automatically unzips the files.
If you do,zipping it again dont work.
I got the software package but it says waiting for ipod or extracting software for forever, any tips?
How long does it take to update the iPod? It’s only been a few minutes for me, but I am starting to panic…
WAIT, not being rude, but just wait. I downloaded it, took about 20 minutes for the restore to do its thing. And not, I have the 2.0 firmware for free. Works Great. Thanks to all for your help!
EDIT: *And now*
Is it working for everyone? Downloading now from derek’s link. Hope for best.
using Safari.
If it fails then I will use FF.
PnL,
Greg
p.s. will keep posted
@GrossGreg: 15-20 minutes Gross depending also on your PC speed also if you connected via usb 2.0 or usb
Anyone get contacted by the feds or apple yet???
If you have problem downloading this, open a terminal and run:
wget ‘http://content.info.apple.com/ProtectedAsset/iPod/osx/bundles/061-4957.20080711.Fr43E/iPod1,1_2.0_5A347_Restore.ipsw’
http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b321/ezular/itouchv2youtube.jpg
Worked perfectly for me. I have a 8gb Touch that was jailbroken with iJailbreak. I didn’t restore or anything, just downloaded with a manager (iGetter), Option-Clicked on update and it did it’s thing. YouTube and Apps store work perfectly!
@Yasuo
i downloaded it with firefox and it worked! Thanks for your help
DID NOT WORK ON SAFARI!!! DOING IT ON FF NOW..
@live crunch - Yeah, it took about ten minutes (I guess I just didn’t consider that it is literally reinstalling the firmware). BTW thanks a lot for posting this link…it’s funny to see how many people on the web are complaining about Apple’s servers, while you made it incredibly easy. I’d buy you a round if I could; you deserve it.
my download is complete. im uploading it right now. i cant wait
Done downloading wiht FF so now gonna try to boot.
Its installing… hope for best… almost done I hope… eeeeek!!! I need this thing for my nashvile flight..
@greg,,did warn you not to use safari..LOL
Pass the message..LOL
Any special recommendations for the instal…. its been on “preparing ipod for software update…” for a looong time….
what does it do while it “prepares”
and what is the possibility of me getting aught doing this?
@yasuo: ahahah I was dumb lol.
Now says “updating!!!
@gregand @chad
Hope it works well for you both’
It took mine 10 minutes tops
But just leave it be as long as no error pops up
stttttiiiiiiillllllll updating hahah
Do you think we can get caught with this??? or will that not even do anything?
verifying updated iPod.
SUCCESS!
i got it to work, it is now loading up all my songs.
yeah so this iPod iTouch 2.0 software upgrade works and it was free, sweet.
I just did the update and everything works great. I didn’t have to do the You Tube trick either. It plays just fine with the location service on. I’m resyncining all my content now
IT WOOOORKED!!! WOrking on youtube now!!!
HOW DO I GET MY SCREEN TO STOP SHAKING?? AHHHH
@greg what you mean shaking??
YOUTUBE NOT WORKING STILL EVEN AFTER TRYING xKiKix FIX.. NO DICE.
SOOOO IPHONISH..
SERIOUSLY, WILL I GET CAUGHT?
@chad,,,good for you….now get back to using safari..LOLOL..
MOVING AROUND APPS.. I FIXED IT THOUGH…
@greg:
caught with what?
this software?
i doubt it.
its coming out anyways, plus who really cares, people jail break them all the time.
@greg,
Will WE get caught?
Perhaps..Unsure actually
I dont know how they authenticate for software update,via serial or via current firmware..
@greg,the moving around apps happens if you pressed any icons for too long…editable signs
hey guys i know its a bit late but please… whats the password for the larger dmg file in the ipod updater and how do you install everything
thank you
nick
yeah butI mean apple NNNNNEEEEDDDDSSS money… I paid 1400 for my macbook … I think they need money lol.. jk
APPLE FOR LIFE!!!!
I turned of wifi during the update for the most part… Heres to hoping!!
If anyone gets a lawsuit I would think it would be this site over every single one of us.
when you download it do you click on the update or the restore to start the process?
You tube works fine for me..
thank you soo much i love you
@bob update
It is not letting me download music to my iPod from itunes.
It only lets me “sync” music to it… not add single songs… please help.
@greg can be more specific?
what is the error?
@greg there is an option
Sync only checked Songs and videos
Maybe you got this box ticked?
And you did not choose the songs you want?
hmmm to yasuo.. well it would just not have the green plus when I would go over the ipod and when I would let go so it could drag and drop.. it would not do it… syncing songs now.. I check all the itunes preferences on the iPod and it did not have certain sync set ups selected but… I selected sync all and it is doing so..
Any suggestions for youtube? will it maybe just fix its self?
My iPod is also taking a while for the installation. When the real firmware comes out how do I install it? Do I have to click restore and everything on my iPod is erased??
Ok, I am getting really frustrated here. I’ve downloaded the .ipsw, and when I’m in iTunes and shift + update, it never works. I”ve tried three times now, and I’m about to lose it.
It does “extracting software,” and then when it gets about halfway through “Preparing iPod for software upgrade” it fails.
Help please? I’ve been trying so many different things literally all day long >.<
@ greg,there is no drag and drop function into the Ipod itself..for Ipod Touch that is,,thru itunes anyway.
You need to tick the songs you want either thru playlist or individual songs.
For Youtube,mine is working fine.
On macrumours it say you will need to “Activate” with Itunes.
Try to go to the itunes store and get any free application,that should authenticate you.
Cross fingers
Youtube fixed its self!! yeay!!! ogonn
Still not getting to put single selected songs on ipod though arghhh
It fixed its self on youtube… still not getting to do single songs hfudisfhnsjdf annoying.
what is the likely hood of us getting in legal trouble?
@greg i think others can answer that better.
CIAO..have fun,go and get super monkey ball.
And I tried to restore ipod to see if the ould do anything.. it gave me error 1632… saying there was a problem downloading the software fo “^&*^&* &**&^&*( iPod) an unknown error occured (1632).
Is that just because 2.0 is not officially released?
Why do you think others can answer that better?
ok, problem with 2.0 seems to have been corrected when I downloaded the software again. Installed without difficulty, but only see one extra icon on ipod after upgrade—for the App Store. Any other icons on your pics I assume are Ipod Apps that were downloaded from the store. Am I correct?
Yeah Eric, those are app store apps.

thanks!!!
[...] forget to check out top post ( Ipod Touch 2.0 Upgrade Download Link [...]
Nevermind it did work but Im still skeptical about this. AND I NEVER KNEW IT WAS SUPPOST TO ERASE EVERYTHING!
got it, works great! thanks so much! no youtube troubles either
I had to restore ine after I was retarded with tinkering… still works fine and did not even have to tinker with youtube this time. All good!
@Greg: All I did is switch to another pc , resync my movies, and music and now works just fine
Hey, thanks Crunch! Everything I have tried, all the new apps work as advertised…only weird thing is that iTunes seems to ignore my request to sync only selected iPods. No big deal and I’m guessing its just a bug in 2.0. Anyone else see this?
still cant install! someone plees guide me through the steps?
thanks
@Nick are you using safari?
So I am finally trying this after working today. I have a jailbroken 1.1.3 16GB iPod now so if I just install this, I will have a fully functional 2.0 iPod? I realize it won’t be jailbroken anymore but it has everything I’ve wanted anyhow.
Can someone confirm this?
Thanks
@live crunch
Do you think we might get in trouble for doing this? And I gifured out that alls I needed to do was click the manual control box lol.
Thanks!
i dont have an options button HELP
im on itunes 7.7
PLEASEEEEEE ANSWER
nick
@SK YES I AM
so does you tube and safari work? also if i brick my ipod or fuck it up, can i ever restart it completely to the way i bought it at the store?

@ Nick
I’m almost positive you’re supposed to hold down SHIFT and click update. But you’re supposed to select the file that you downloaded here. That was the whole point of this download. =]
Hey is this the same 2.0 update you would buy from itunes for $9.99 with the January software update included. Is it safe to download it from here are there any risk involved. Do you still update using itunes.
. go to the home screen, tap the settings button
2. go to wi-fi and find your internet source/connection
3. then go back to settings and then tap general
4. scroll down until you find “location service” it should be under network
5. turn the “location service” off
when i go to network i dont have location service why not? ( i dont have 2.0 yet its 88%) is that why?
i “shift+update”-ed and itunes now says it is preparing ipod for software upgrade. but the same msg’s been up for quite awhile, is there something wrong? what should i do? please help!

KEEP IN MIND YOUR IPOD WILL BE ERASED
1. download the file from the link
2. when the download is finished, DELETE the .zip off the end of the file so that it is just .ipsw
