If you're successful in restoring without errors, you should be able to update to iOS 5 when it's released in the fall.


Don't be tempted to hack the phone and install the beta from a pirate site. Apple is cracking down and permanently disabling phones with iOS 5 not obtained legitimately through the developers's program.
