I've tried the OTA...tried through iTunes...tried the direct link through Safari. Can never get it started. My iPhone stays stuck on "estimating time remaining", then shows an error that it cannot connect.

Well I am at home now, and am doing it through itunes and it seems to be fine......maybe they somehow blocked the ability to do it via phone only for now, and once the mad rush is done they will open it up?? not sure if that is possible or not.

Strange..... Well my update went through perfectly when done via iTunes. Up until that point though I was getting the same error when attempting to do it over the phone.

I'm sure that's possible... but it's not what happened. I updated 5 devices (2 iPhones, 2 iPads and an iPod) OTA over the course of the day... I did 2 devices before noon MST... and the other 3 between 3:00 pm and 7:00 pm MST yesterday...

Trust me, nothing was blocked...

Tried OTA unsuccessfully several times; all I get from iTunes is never-ending "Contacting the iPhone Update Server." Oh well, I'll try later tonight; it isn't like my iPhone and iPad don't still work just fine without this update...

does anyone know a trusted mirror server to download 5.1 from? For some reason my internet will not let me get it through any apple related server.

Anyone else still not able to update? I can't update my iPhone 4 or IPad 2. On the iPhone it shows the update but stays on estimating time available for 2 minutes then gives me an error.
