TidBITS#933/16-Jun-08
=====================
  Issue link: <http://db.tidbits.com/issue/933>

  The iPhone has captured much attention in our world, but it's not
  the only smartphone on the market. Mark Anbinder looks at the $99
  Palm Centro and discovers there's still some life in Palm. Also in
  this issue, Sharon Zardetto looks at the state of font
  auto-activation under Leopard, and Adam cleans up his system with
  Service Scrubber. Getting back to the iPhone, Glenn Fleishman
  provides more details about the upcoming iPhone 3G, and Mark pines
  for SlingPlayer Mobile for the iPhone, while Adam crunches the
  numbers and discovers that the iPhone 3G will cost U.S. buyers more
  than the original, despite its advertised lower prices. We also note
  the releases of QuickTime 7.5, iMovie 7.1.2, iDVD 7.0.2, Iris 1.0,
  AirPort Utility 5.3.2, PopChar X 4, Mellel 2.5, Opera 9.5,
  BlogAssist 2.2, InterMapper 5.5, and updates to The Missing Sync for
  Palm, Symbian, and Windows Mobile.
