This is an update to the installer, not to the iPod's firmware. The installer is now at 1.3.1 and the firmware is still at 1.3. For those who may have not updated their iPods (and, trust me, I know they're out there) this is important for them to use the version of iTunes that comes with Panther. Quit whining, everyone! For what it is - a bug fix for the installer - this is excellent and nice to see that Apple has not completely forgotten about those of us with older iPods (btw, you will probably never see the new firmware features on the old iPods for numerous, legit reasons concerning the OS and who made it)
