Make sure you are connected to the internet.  Also, sometimes Apple's servers 
have downtime, so wait and try 
again.

If all else fails, you can download it manually from:

4037.20071107.5Bghn/iPhone1,1_1.1.2_3B48b_Restore.ipsw

and then place it in ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates/

Then run iNdependence again and try to activate.
