I now have two copies on my iPhone for calendars I subscribed to both on the Mac and the iPhone. One in the MobileMe section of the iCal app and one in the subscribed calendars section. I checked to see if my default selection in iTunes for calendar syncing had changed post iTunes 9 to include a wired sync with iCal, but it hadn't. Because if Apple is now allowing you to wirelessly sync subscriptions via MobileMe – Awesome!

Hopefully they will release a fix for this soon. Yes, App Organizer needed a bit more…. The App Organizer released today should have been the one released last year. Very interesting day!

Spotlight – haven't tried that yet, but sounds like ouch, not good. Not super impressed with app organizing either.

I can still find old emails I deleted a week ago. Very strange. Apple why did you not implement categories to the app organizer. Happy but they could have put more thought into the organizer. Better than nothing I guess.

Oh, absolutely I do – believe that we'll see a 3.1 jailbreak fairly soon that is. App management is not all that impressive so far I have to say.

Very chuffed to see app management – just a shame they didn't implement folders/categories for apps too while they were on!

(and dont get me started on IMAP IDLE / Push Gmail!)

I'll be upgrading my itunes now. But of course, i'm going to wait until the jailbreak is out for 3.1. I just can't live without my jailbreak! But for me, the most exciting feature is being able to use voice control with my jawbone. I hardly ever talk on the phone with the phone to my ear. It will be very convenient to be able to dial without having to grab my phone. Hurry Dev Team!!! 🙂

Still no Beatles??? I am thankful for the organization tool in iTunes 🙂 How about you Patrick, what is your favorite new feature?
