Yesterday I got a new Touch in and tried a number of things to try and
get it setup without connecting to mysb.com. No luck. The intial screen
that tries to connect to mysb.com cannot be over-ridden with the
"swipe". I tried putting the firmware on a USB stick, that made no
difference. I tried connecting to a DHCP server but no internet
connection, no difference. 

I'm leaving this one in a pristine state for now so I can use it to test
options. 

>From looking at the boot code on my other Touch there is a variable that
gets set once the initial setup is complete, which bypasses that code
from therafter. So it looks like all we have to do is write a script
(with the correct  name) that sets this variable, put it and the new
firmware on the USB stick and boot from that. The boot code that reads
the script looks like it happens significantly earlier than the variable
test so theoretically it should work. 

I'll have to spend some more time looking into  this and work out the
details of the script.
