No more Pre syncing in iTunes 8.2.1

Author: Jeff

15 Jul

Back in June, Apple warned Palm that they would only provide iTunes syncing capabilities for their in-house handsets. This notice was released after Palm announced the ability of their Pre to sync up with Apple’s software.

Well, it looks like that syncing will be no more as iTunes 8.2.1 comes onto the scene as PreThinking has confirmed the feature is no longer there.

How will Palm respond to this? Will they update the Pre’s firmware to once again allow syncing or will they just sit back and accept defeat? We’ll keep you posted.

Like Google using a “free” OS in an anti-competitive move to generate ad revenue for another of it’s products, Apple uses iTunes to dominate the phone and mp3 markets. Can you imagine the uproar if Microsoft did this?

Apple not only controls their markets, they own them.

FTC - are you listening? Unless you have an iPod or an iPhone, guess not.

Since I don’t want Aplle suing me too…..
