Video: iTunes 9 Home Sharing and iPhone app management {Engadget}
Sep 9th 2009 8:01PM I have Safari 4.0.3 on my Tiger (10.4.11) backup installation (just updated to it yesterday), so that is probably why Apple made sure that people knew that *iTunes* stated it required Leopard or later to work.

Sep 9th 2009 7:54PM There's been a Vista x64 version available since 7.6, and you can find workarounds for the Vista x64 version to work on XP/Server x64...
As for the Mac side, no there isn't a 64-bit version yet.

Anyone can change a Boost iDen account to a CDMA account, getting EVDO capable data and unlimited everything for the same price, as long as you can find a 'Clear to be activated' Boost CDMA phone (or even a Sprint branded phone in certain cases).
No Wi-Fi on Your Phone? New MicroSD Card Changes That in a Flash {Switched.com}
Jul 26th 2009 7:49PM It probably won't work on a non-smartphone, since the device will need drivers installed (and already had SDIO compatibility) before the card's used for the first time. There's still a number of smartphone that don't have SDIO, so I doubt any 'dumbphone' will have SDIO capabilities. However, I wouldn't be surprised if most smartphone OS+Drivers can solve the "manage wifi selection" potential issue post-install.
Expansys has a MicroSDIO Wifi card that works on WM already (Spectec makes it and provides drivers for it). Maybe these new ones will have drivers for Blackberry and Symbian OS too.
iTunes 8.2.1 brings Pre's music syncing capability to a halt (updated) {Engadget}
Jul 15th 2009 4:13PM @p3t3b2,
Once you update iTunes, it updates its media library files and makes them backwards-incompatible. So, if you already updated to 8.2.1, you'd be essentially have to reimport your music in (and making a new distinct 'library') just to use an older iTunes version.
Pre users suffer since that makes people have two different copies of iTunes software (or use 3rd party items like Songbird/DoubleTwist/etc) just to sync with the Pre... most casual users won't want to do this.
Plus, if Apple forces iTunes Store users to be on iTunes 8.2.1 or later to buy items (which is very possible, Apple loves doing server end changes like that), then that will just add insult to injury to Pre users.

iTunes 8.2.1 released: Update cripples Palm Pre sync {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jul 15th 2009 3:43PM Simple. If Apple's Music Store decides to require 8.2.1 (or later, which tends to happen from time to time), then Pre users are SOL and would need to use something other than iTunes Store to get music from (say Amazon)...

Jun 19th 2009 1:00PM Laura'll make a GREAT weatherperson. Yes, I said weatherperson, not meteorologist, since the former aren't trained to study the weather just [sometimes falsely and drunkenly] report it.

Jun 7th 2009 1:51PM Also, the 'don't load external images in email' setting is reportedly a setting found in the 3.0 betas, so it's possible that'll stay in the public release.
