iPhone 3.0 Beta 4 Notes Sync… Requires Mac OS X 10.5.7…?
iPhone 3.0 Beta 4 required iTunes 8.2 Pre-Release to install, and it looks like iTunes 8.2 Pre-Release requires… Mac OS Leopard 10.5.7 in order to sync notes now. Which, of course, is not yet available.
Previous iPhone 3.0 Betas have synced perfectly well under the current Mac OS release, 10.5.6.
A sign of 10.5.7’s immanent arrival? Perhaps. A more interesting question is what’s changed in note sync to require it where previous betas did not?

Still looks good on PC iTunes 8.2.

Nice tactic to get people to buy the newest version of OS X, if you want all the new iPhone features you have to buy our new desktop OS version. Sure to lead to a few extra sales at least.

@sting7k: You do know that every update of mac os 10.5 is free, don’t you. Only major updates like 10.4 -> 10.5 or 10.5 to 10.6 cost money.

Immanent, is not the same as imminent

I have installed the beta 4 and it’s working flawlessly. Very fast and no crashes, all my apps are working as expected. Very nice!

Great, but can at least get task sync for those Mobileme subscribers. Why is Apple withholding this feature? Geez..
