iPhone updates come in three sizes: wee, not so wee, and—well, you get the idea. While iTunes 7.5 (also for Windows) and QuickTime 7.3 are probably worth upgrading to simply for the bug fixes, it's worth nothing that they do include some iPhone-specific functionality. Let's go to iTunes first:iTunes 7.5 features the ability to activate iPhone wherever service is offeredNot terribly cryptic: we know that the iPhone's coming to the UK and Germany on Friday, so 7.5 includes the code for activating via O2 and T-Mobile respectively (perhaps even the code for Orange if they're looking ahead to the end of the month, though we might expect a 7.5.1 by then). As for QuickTime 7.3 (which comes in versions for Panther, Tiger, Leopard, and Windows), we find an iPhone addition that will primarily interest developers:Updated support for creating iPhone-compatible web contentHuzzah.
