Apple has released iPod Updater 2004-11-15, the software that updates your iPod’s firmware. Notable in this release is a whole bunch of features for the iPod mini that were previously only available to iPod users. Nothing for G3 iPod owners though.

Stuff like Delete songs from On-The-Go playlists and Create multiple On-The-Go playlists should have been there out-of-the-box, while Hear Click Wheel clicker through headphones is nice to have. Can’t wait to try it out tommorrow when syncing in the office.

Ugh. You need to use the charger (the Firewire one) to flash the firmware. Now I’m stuck with a useless iPod mini for the rest of today and the long commute home.
