Probably to make up for the fact that Version 1.1.3 iPod touches will be hitting the shelves with the five extra applications on them, Amazon and some others are selling their iPods with version 1.1.1-1.1.2 software at all time low prices. 

$258.99 for the 8Gb and $358.99 for the 16Gb

As the hacking with 1.3 is progressing along nicely - but is not definite, it might make sense to pick one of these up now - if you are into that sort of thing.

Or you can sign a petition (like that is going to work) to get Apple to give it to you for free.  They have taken the "buy now" link (iTunes Link) down so maybe you are in luck.

As always, we are amazon affiliates and get credit when you buy products from our site.

I think they should seriously give it to people for free. Apple should do the right thing and let everybody who bought their product ahead of time get the 1.1.3 Update for free.

Apple's fans are far more idealistic than Apple itself.  I'm almost surprised they're offering an update at all-- making everybody buy a new one seems more their style.

at any other time wouldn't a price cut stir speculation of the imminent appearance of a new model?
