Let the free-for-all commence...

**dmilleville90** · 10-12-2011, 12:10 PM

I just started the download, 20 minutes remaining. Time couldn't be going slower!

**Netherscourge** · 10-12-2011, 12:13 PM

17 minutes and counting.

(Doing this at work - so all my stuff is getting wiped off my iPod. But it's all backed up at home anyway. I prefer clean installs.)

**vthokies** · 10-12-2011, 12:14 PM

Woohoo! Finally! Mine says it will take 20 minutes to download.

That is the official version. You have the exact same version we're downloading.

You won't see an update until iOS 5.1.0 comes out. (or whatever they call it)

Also - my download time is now increasing!!!

Could everyone please cancel your download until mine finishes?

K thanks

j/k

**Danieldenial** · 10-12-2011, 12:24 PM

I'm 65% of the way there.. and only 12 minutes remaining!!!

**mikesa_tx** · 10-12-2011, 12:25 PM

Oh my goodness.......TAKING FOREVER!!!!!!

**BrindawithanI** · 10-12-2011, 12:26 PM

T -25 and counting. Synced and backed up my phone before I went to bed. Hubby now knows the extent of my addiction. :o

**Blade_Run** · 10-12-2011, 12:30 PM

455 mb d/l'd, 16 mins to go but climbing.

**aggieastrosfan** · 10-12-2011, 12:33 PM

Doing the phone on DH's computer for his phone - 16 minutes or so left, not too bad. Doing iPad on mine - 78 minutes.

. And the phone version is bigger, have no idea how his is going to finish faster! Then again, it is at 24 minutes now. Sigh.

**OC Pcar** · 10-12-2011, 12:34 PM

doing the ipad first, its on the restore part of the upgrade

**Netherscourge** · 10-12-2011, 12:35 PM

The masses are attacking it now.

I started off at 17min remaining, have half of it downloaded according to the progress bar, and now I'm showing 30 min remaining...

**BiG BaLLA 923** · 10-12-2011, 12:35 PM

I hate being at school...everybody's always downloading something and the connection is so slow...2 hours remaining...

**EvilJack8** · 10-12-2011, 12:40 PM

Mine was going swimmingly until about 1:25p EST when the masses must have hit Apple. It's been stuck on 12 minutes left since then. argh.

**beamersooner** · 10-12-2011, 12:42 PM

Down to 4 minutes. Raced out to 500mb and then it took 20 minutes to get to 700mb... but almost made it!

**dmilleville90** · 10-12-2011, 12:46 PM

Same here. I am on my university's internet and it is taking soooo long. It started at 20 but is now at 70 mins and only going up.

**bailey0907** · 10-12-2011, 12:46 PM

Only at 491.2. Been downloading since 1:04 est.

**aggieastrosfan** · 10-12-2011, 12:46 PM

Anyone know if I can use the downloaded file on DH's computer to update more than one phone? As in use it to update his phone and then hook mine up and install it? We use the same iTunes account, but sync to different computers. I can always restore from my last backup on my computer after it's done. Really don't want to have to wait to download it 3 times! 4 if you count son's Touch - but that one can wait.
