Palm has once again restored iTunes syncing with the newly updated webOS firmware 1.2.1, circumventing the protective measures that Apple placed in iTunes 9.
The new firmware allows users to sync with all iTunes including 9.0.1. Pre and (soon to be) Pixi owners can now also sync photo albums, as well as thumbnails to save space.
A recent PreCentral report stated that Apple's measures of protection for iTunes 9 were defeated in "2.5 hours" and that Palm will "continue to update webOS to maintain sync until it takes more than 40 man-hours of effort to add the feature back."
Purportedly, Palm took 5 minutes to break Apple's first protective measures, simply switching the vendor ID.
The new update will also fix most bugs with Exchange 2007 contacts as well as add better support for online video and audio.
