iPod and iTunes updates

iTunes 4.9 with podcast support has been released.

Also, the iPod and iPod photo have been merged into one line. All white iPods now have colour displays and have a specific Podcast menu item.

The new line up is:

- 20Gb £209
- 20Gb U2 Special Edition - £229
- 60Gb £299

The iPod shuffle 1Gb has been reduced to £89. These announcements cover some of the things I'd predicted for the 7th July press event (namely items 3, 4 and a bit of 1). So the event must be mainly about the iTunes phone.
