Apple Releases iTunes 9 and iPhone OS 3.1
Their 'event' today was certainly about the music, and the new features in iTunes 9 are pretty nice, for the little I've played with them. I like the application management, and the re-done iTunes Store within iTunes. I'm a little surprised that they changed the behavior of the "minimize button" to actually minimize the window. Now it's called the "mini View" and is a menu selection and keyboard shortcut. I suppose this is a good thing, but it is a little odd that they made this change.
Then there's the iPhone OS 3.1 which adds a few nice features and sets the stage for AT&T to actually enable MMS. I'm willing to bet there are a few holes plugged - like the tethering hack and possibly a few of the jailbreaks, but who knows. I don't do either, and don't plan to. But I got that as well, and it was nice and painless.
So a couple of nice things in addition to the new iPod Touch and Nano hardware. I have to admit, these iPods are getting really pretty darn nice. But I've got my iPhone now, and that's going to be all I need.
