 About time!

I know there's a much smaller number of Mac OS users out there than Windows, but it's still been a pain to have to wait a number of months to get this update. Judging by this, and the fact that half of the LifeDrive's software is Windows-only, I wouldn't be surprised to see Palm drop Mac OS support soon.

Anyway, thanks to PIC for announcing this - it's a pretty mundane piece of news, yes, but it saved me wondering whether to bother keep checking Palm's site to see if the Mac version's been released yet (I'd almost given up hope it was ever going to be).

Actually, I wonder... isn't this the first firmware update provided by Palm that runs on Mac OS X? Several old Palm firmware upgrades ran on the Classic Mac OS, and the underlying hardware communication on Mac OS X is completely and totally different.
