iTunes 8.2.1 Now Available

Well, iTune 8.2.1 is out and available for download. For all you people out there with jailbroken iPhones running on the 3.0 firmware, I would advise that you not upgrade to this version until the dev teams see what the differences are in this new version. It has been verified that the new iTunes will not sync with the Palm Pre, which was one of the features that was possible with the iTunes 8.2 version that was released on June 1st. That was inevitable in my opinion. Apple doesn’t want anyone but Apple using their features.

Apple claims that there are some minor bug fixes, but I’m quite sure there is alot more than that going on. They are on the losing end of the cat and mouse game being played with the iPhone hacking community, even though software has been created that is totally independent of  iTunes’ use to jailbreak iPhone 2G, 3G, and 3G S. It has been rumoured that the new software being released will send information about the iPhone to Apple. I’m quite sure that the information will tell Apple if your iPhone is unlocked or jailbroken. That feature could be present in the iTunes update as well as the 3.1 firmware which will be released soon. I advise that you steer clear of both until we can found out what Apple has up their sleeve.
