Must I have my iPhone 3G plugged in to download the update from iTunes ?
Can I just download it first ?

@Jermaine

You need iTunes 8 and plugin your iphone. Click updates. You can download it and restore it later or update inmediately.

Thanks to davidgary73 & lotilor on the explanation, but I think I know how to update.
I was just wondering is there a way just to download the update on iTunes first without plugging in my iPhone cause my iPhone isn't with me now and then update later.
