New iTunes hints at iPhone disk use and voice memos?

If you hadn't heard, iTunes 7.5 hit today, and while we were all busy yawning at the seemingly insignificant update, MacRumors Forums user "FreeState" was checking out some localized strings and tracked down a few gems. Number 4320.069 asks if you're "sure you want to manually manage your music on your iPhone?" Yeah, we're sure. While 4320.073 teases that "Enabling the iPhone for disk use requires manually ejecting the iPhone before each disconnect, even when automatically syncing music." We can live with those demands. Mr. 4320.075 is a bit more generic, but 4320.082 is the sexiest of the bunch: "The iPhone "^1" contains new voice memos. Would you like to move these voice memos to your iTunes library?" We've been waiting for months for the iPhone to add that no-brainer feature, so here's hoping that the next iPhone update will be swift and promise-fulfilling.

How many times does the Mac/iPhone/Tech media need to be reminded that these strings are just copied/pasted in large chunks from those belonging to other devices?!
Just like the strings regarding synchronizing games to Apple TVs, these ones about manally managing music and Voice Memos come straight from the iPod blocks.
Just compare these 4320 block strings to the 4300 block strings for iPods. Identical.
Can we stop spreading these rumors? Please?

The feature I'm waiting for is the ability to categorize your iphone contacts with folders, or tags (preferably). I hope they do something like this soon.
