A source at a software company that has been working on a native iPhone application tells us the company is getting ready to launch that application on Monday, which could also imply that Apple's App Store will be up and running that day.
A Monday launch of the iTunes App Store would also imply an immediate release of the iPhone 2.0 Firmware which would be much earlier than expected. When Apple announced the iPhone SDK beta and 2.0 firmware, they said the final release would be available "by the end of June."If you are a developer and would like news coverage of your iPhone Game or Application, please contact us for consideration of coverage on TouchArcade and MacRumors.

Perhaps Apple is eager to be ahead of the game, instead of behind the curve as they've been on a few recent (software) releases...?

Looks like waiting until WWDC to purchase my iMac 3.06 + iPod Touch will pay off! I'm glad I resisted the temptation to order today!

I can't see Apple releasing the 2.0 software on monday, but it would surprise the hell out of me if I'm wrong and I would be very glad.

The article also says that the 3g will be available monday and have GPS. That and the app store would make me so happy on Monday, I just hope the price tag is around $400 (or less)
