webOS 1.1 Restores Ability to Sync Palm Pre with iTunes

Hmm. This is starting to look like the Blu-ray cracking competition…

Palm fires back at Apple, fixes Pre sync with iTunes

So, you Palm Pre owners can breathe a sigh of relief and resume syncing music, photos and videos with iTunes. Of course, you also probably know that Apple may release iTunes update 8.2.2 any day and cut off syncing again.

This kind of inter-company push and shove doesn’t help anyone and wastes a lot of valuable software developers’ time. If I were a Palm Pre owner, I’d try to get together with lots of other Pre owners to tell Palm they need to develop their own desktop client with an option to use iTunes.
