Tried Updating non-jailbroken iphone, now it's a brick

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?
