You can now update to iTunes 7.7 - check in software updater.

Once it is installed - if you do not see the App Store - change your country to New Zealand to see the app store.

The App store was not showing up yet when I was set to the US.  You can change the country at the bottom of the main page on iTunes.

PS - YES!!! I know I messed up on the Caps Lock - it was there in 1.1.4


UPDATE 1:  From Chris in NY - for access from the US Store.

Go to preferences in iTunes on general tab make sure Applications is ticked. Then in itunes select Applications on the left. Then bottom right select get more appliations and you will see US AppStore.

Thanks Chris.

Here is our very simplified decision tree on if you should get the iPhone 3G.

DIGG this

Here is the survey data so far for the question on "Are you going to get the  iPhone 3G?"

There were 449 responses which puts it at an accuracy of better than +/- 5%.  Mind you this should be looked at not for the general public - but rather for those interested in the iPhone (YOU - why else would you be reading this). 

But at least based on this data it looks like 50% of current iPhone owners are going to "upgrade" to the iPhone 3G.  And of those currntly iPhone deprived - 64% will be getting the new iPhone (Mind you it is those iPhone deprived and interested in the iPhone - otherwise they would not have found this survey). Either way you slice it this means millions of new iPhone 3G customers very soon (talk about captain obvious).
