Hi,
iOS7 from Apple will be available for download on Wednesday 18th of September 2013.
The update will be available for :
Now is the time to carry out some homework on this release, as its not just an update to iOS6 , its a full UI overhaul.
Ensure your idevice battery is 80% +
If your low on internal memory then think about deleting unused apps, music, videos, pictures, tones and e mails etc, to allow the update to proceed.
First update your iTunes to the newest availabe version.
You can achieve this by opening up iTunes and clicking on.... 'Check for Updates'
Carry out a sync of your idevice.
Then create a back up to iTunes and iCloud, or both.
Then when you hook up your idevice to iTunes and click on the device name, if the iOS7 update is available, you will see the appropriate message saying so.
Be patient as Apples servers will be maxed out, and as such the update may not be available to you at first. Keep checking.
Ensure you have left enough down time for the update to complete.
Sit back and wait
Any users who have jail-broken their idevices are advised to abstain from updating.
Lots more information on the 02 Forum site here:
And here from the Apple Uk Site.

My preference is to perform such a large update via my Mac.
Patches etc I do via OTA.

I believe its a staggered release to allow the iOS7 download to not fry Apples Servers.
