Software Update: iPod Updater 2005-11-17
Available from Software Update today is iPod Updater 2005-11-17, which includes new iPod software v1.1.3 for iPod Shuffle. The only change information listed in both the Software Update summary and in the Installer window are that it provides "bug fixes."Maybe this will be a fix for the Orange-Green Flash of Death reported recently by some users in the Mac community.
Thanks to Ken for the tip.

Why can't they put out a fix for the 5th gen won't go to sleep problem when video is paused. Thats the most annoying thing ever, you hit sleep and then put it back in your pocket to pull it out an hour later to have it hanging on from a nearly dead battery.

Why can't they fix the broken smart playlist function on the ipod. It used to update automatically without needing to reconnect to iTunes, but the broke it about a year ago. Seems Apple can't be bothered to fix it (was it ever an advertised feature? can I sue them??!!)

The smarlist feature is one of the things that I'm expecting for them to fix asap... since they put out the support for podcasts this feature was disable in 4th gen iPods... I have to un-update my iPod to version 3.0.1 or 3.0.0... to be able to use again on-the-fly smartlist...

BTW, in case anyone didn't notice, this update is 36.8 FREAKIN' MEGS! That's a lot of iPod software. :)
Let's just hope Sony didn't sneak a rootkit in there...
