On iTune latest, downloaded the 2.1 update for my 3G iphone which tried to automatically run, and it gave an unknown error in itunes, and now my iphone is stuck on a screen with the itunes logo, and a usb cable end pointing to it, with an arrow in between.

Any idea how to sort?

Despite rebooting and loading itunes, and connecting and reconnecting, it's only AFTEr I typed this that I loaded ituned and it actually detected that my iphone was in recovery mode, so I've got past that screen at least, and it's currently restoring....something.

I had done a backup (took 7 hours!!!) just beforehand, hopefully it'll use that?
