Just in case anyone of you feels like jailbreaking his Apple device and already has firmware 2.0 on: don’t bother trying to do this with WinPwn 2.0.0.2 RC1.
I have just tried to create a custom firmware file on my Windows XP box. The process runs halfway though, but then suddenly dies. A small (approx 24MB) ipsw file is created in the process; however, it cannot be flashed onto the device via iTunes.
The bug seems to be known to the WinPwn team to some extent – a few posts in their forum confirm it and offer readily-made firmware files as a remedy.
People who don’t feel like installing files found on the web currently can’t do anything if they don’t have access to a Mac. Stay tuned for further updates as we get them though!

P.S. Looking for instructions on installing ipsw files onto your iPod touch/iPhone?
