iPod Software Update 1.2.6, OS X 10.2.5 Seed
- iPod Software 1.2.6 provides improved battery management which solves a problem that may appear to shorten your iPod's battery life.
Some customers have reported that over time their iPod's battery life has declined. This update enables the iPod to more accurately monitor its battery charge, thus using the entire battery capacity and regaining long battery life. The result is longer playback time and extended standby time. After updating the iPod, customers can expect at least 10 days of standby battery life on a full charge.
Prior to this update, the iPod would sometimes mistake a temporary low voltage condition as an indication that the battery was discharged. This resulted in the iPod shutting down prematurely, even though the battery was still capable of powering the iPod.
A new Mac OS X 10.2.5 Seed has been delivered to developers:
Improved USB Modem connections
Better compatibility with EGBridge in Katankana input mode
Updated Bluetooth Kernel API's
Finder Copy to SMB volume improved
Additional support for a variety of new third-party CD-R/W Drives

It isn't a security hole so much as a default setting. The default settings for the .Mac password on your keychain is to allow it's use without prompting you for your password. This setting is very easy to change in the keychain. And anyway, if someone can access your keychain to read the password, then there isn't much stopping them from just taking your entire computer anyway.

When you update, the ipod umounts, then you need to unplug it and plug it back it for the update to load on the ipod.

I'm worried I will have to wipe my HD and reinstall the OS so I used the Pod like a Firewire HD and just put as many of my mp3s on it as possible, as data not as playlists, so I can't even listen to them.
