Alongside today's releases of iOS 5, OS X 10.7.2, and iCloud, Apple has also pushed out iPhoto 9.2, which brings compatibility with iCloud and its Photo Stream feature as well as a number of other improvements and fixes.

iPhoto 9.2 supports compatibility with iCloud and iOS 5. This update also addresses minor stability, performance and compatibility issues, including:

- Left and right swipe gestures can now be used to navigate between photos in Magnify (1-up) view
- Previously imported photos are now displayed in a separate section of the Import window
- Book/calendar themes and card categories can now be selected using a pop-up menu in the carousel view
- Resolves an issue that could cause some pages of books to print incorrectly
- Rebuilding a library now correctly preserves saved slideshows and books

The update is recommended for all users of iPhoto '11.

iPhoto 9.2 weighs in at 357.18 MB and requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or OS X 10.7.2 or later.

Photostream is a part of iCloud, which does require Lion.

It's annoying that Apple created an iCloud control panel app for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but they seem to be limiting iCloud for OS X users to Lion only. Since Lion leaves out first gen Intel machines, that leaves out what I imagine would be a good portion of users that would otherwise upgrade to the latest OS.

My Software Update got about half way through and stopped downloading. Then after a min, it picked back up full speed ahead. 888mb update for just the Mac, plus iTunes and iPhone. Damn, Apple has built a beast of a datacenter to handle all this plus iPod, iPhone and iPad updates. My iPad 2 update alone is 700+ mb.
