iTunes 7.3 brings iPhone features and Apple TV photo streaming

iTunes 7.3Yes, iTunes 7.3 is mainly about the iPhone. Its new features included the ability to activate your iPhone, and sync your movies, music, contacts, etc. with Apple’s shiny new handset.

But.

That’s not all. The iTunes update also sneaks in a new feature for Apple’s other consumer appliance, the Apple TV. Here’s the dope:

Also, you can now wirelessly share and enjoy your favorite digital photos from any computer in your home with Apple TV.
Well, nifty peachy keen. Previously, as you may remember, photos could only be synced to your AppleTV via iTunes; this seems to suggest that you can now stream them from any computer, which is sure to make Apple TV owners a happy bunch (not that they’re intrinsically sad or anything).

Got an Apple TV? Let us know how the update works!

It also updates the graphics for the interface slightly. The black glossy highlighting in the sidebar (which I personally thought was pretty ugly) has been replaced with something that looks more like the standard Aqua highlighting. Also, the buttons down at the bottom has been given a lighter shade of gray and now stand out a bit more.

Now, if they only could get rid of those ugly scroll bars...

(Being European I have to focus on something other than the new iPhone features, it's painful enough as it is ;P)
