Trying to update to the new iPhone OS v3.0 and was repeatedly getting this error message in iTunes.

We could not complete your iTunes Store request.
An unknown error occured (-4).

There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later.

Apparently, Rich Hauck has the solution.

1. Quit iTunes
2. Navigate to System/Library/Extensions and delete AppleMobileDevice.kext (you may be prompted to enter your admin information)
3. Restart iTunes

Directions are also official via Apple Support.
