In addition to officially acknowledged security enhancements and a series of undocumented fixes/improvements, iPhone Update 1.0.1 also improves compatibility with a number of third-party accessories that exhibited issues under the initial software/firmware revision.
For instance, as part of our iPhone accessory compatibility index, we tagged the iRhythms A-302 incompatible, as it generates severe audio distortion even when the iPhone is in Airplane mode under software/firmware revision 1.0. However, after the update, the iPhone generates no discernable audio distortion when put in Airplane mode.
In addition, a report by Walt Mossberg on the All Things Digital site says:
“After I did the update, I was suddenly able to route the iPhone’s music output through my car iPod adapter, which the iPhone had previously recognized only as a charger, even though it acted as both a charger and an audio adapter for my iPod.”

Just over two short years since Apple launched the iTunes Store they have overcome yet another milestone. With a catalog of 5 million songs and having just sold over 3 billion songs Apple is now the 3rd largest music retailer in the US, ahead of Amazon and Target.
“We’d like to thank all of our customers who have contributed to this incredible milestone,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s vice president of iTunes.
Apple has definitely revolutionized the way people purchase and listen to their music, this milestone just marks another level of achievement. Apple has already hit 100 million iPods sold, should get interesting when that number rounds the 1 billion mark, which I suspect will happen, some day.

The OpenOffice.org Mac Porting team are proud to announce the first development snapshot of the Aqua version of OpenOffice.org for Mac OS X, with note "All snapshots until we release the a beta product should not be used for production work, as the software may crash and may destroy your data. A backup of all documents used in OpenOffice.org Aqua is recommended."
This Project aims to port OpenOffice.org to run on Mac OS X natively without X11. OpenOffice.org Aqua requires Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger).
