Downloaded via OTA, but now Software Update is unavailable. Baby steps!
same here. took about an hour to download after a few hiccups thanks to my firms wi-fi and Apple. Now it goes into "veryifying update" and then I get the "unavailable" message. I'm here at work for awhile so I'll just keep trying. Just want to beat my son to the punch as he's stuck in school!

If you have beta, you will not get the OTA update for official iOS7. To do this, you will have to put your iPhone in DFU mode and iTunes will update your device to the official iOS 7. Make sure you have iTunes updated to 11.1.

I forget.. how to put the phone back into dfu?
"Plug your iPhone into your computer using your USB cord. Start iTunes on your computer. Press and hold the circular "Home" button at the bottom of the screen. Press and hold the "Sleep/Wake" button at the top right of the device at the same time as the "Home" button. Hold both buttons for 10 seconds. Release the "Sleep/Wake" button. Continue to hold the "Home" button until iTunes detects an iPhone in recovery mode."

Beta Testers: You don't have to be in DFU mode. Just upgrade to iTunes 11.1, plug in your phone, and it will automatically pop-up saying your phone is ready for an update. At least, that's how it worked for me.

Installed OK on iPad 4. Not so straightforward on my iPhone 4s. Something went amiss on the installation and had to restore the phone, now downloading backup from iCloud.
