After waiting over four hours and constantly hitting the server, I finally made it through and got my first gen iPhone with 2.0 firmware activated.
I had a bit of a scare when I first saw this message, but luckily I was still able to activate without a problem.
Success!
Time to play with some apps!
I recommend just continuing to try and activate - eventually you will make it through. Or, if you aren’t that patient, maybe try again later this evening.
