Just wondering if all of you who were having problems with last week's update have downloaded this version yet.

How's it working now? Anything new and (greatly) improved?

I'm probably gonna download it anyway before MacWorld just in case they start charging ...

i doubt they would start charging for it at macworld unless they came out with a pro version or something.

I bet it just fixes those time zone bugs.

At least iCal now supports Norwegian.

Not trying to stir the rumor pot, but does anyone else find it...odd...that this would come out today - a Sunday - of all days? Wondering if the iCal team is working late preparing it for some sync show on Tues.

Preciousss: Are you sure it's iCal 1.0.2 and not iCal 1.0.1? I ran software updates and it didn't find anything new. Apple released the iCal v.1.0.1 update on 01/02/2003.

Na it came out on Thurs, it had some messed up bugs so they fixed them before the keynote.

iCal has never been available via Software Update.

Thanks. I was coming back here to edit my post.

Wow, this is *very* strange. Apple releases stuff on Tuesdays, not on Sundays. Something's gotta be up for Tuesday's keynote... I hope it's something big.

Of course, maybe Apple is just seeing how many people will actually download the 1.0.1 updater, then get the 1.0.2 updater just a day or two later? Jobs walks up on stage, "Dude, abot 5,000 of you people need lives... so let me present, iLife!" And then Apple Stores get turned into nightclubs...

If you go to version tracker, you'll see that it's fixing many bugs present in 1.0.1

lol.

But the cover charge would be several times higher than for PC nightclubs, and the music would be much slower. Steve would of course try unsuccessfully to explain the "tempo myth."

It's only on an odd day - because of the app ruining bug in 1.0.1
And it was actually a Monday release (as they said, the 6th) - remember that his bug affected mostly australian + nz + oceania users. It sure wasn't up sunday night for us
