I wonder what shareware this update disables?
I thought this update was supposed to improve the mini’s battery life too. . .?
This update is a few months late. As far as battery improvement, that was part of the rumor. But you should realize that only when an update is actually posted do we find out what it contains.
Nice to see the minis now up to par with their 4G siblings since they are still current models afterall.
YES!! Me happy!!
I just updated mine. Went smooth.
It also avoids re-starting of iPod when you disconnect from the Mac.
In short, its all GOOD.
