Not porting itunes to linux is one of the nicer things Apple has done
for us. :)

AFAIK, none of the linux tools work yet with iPhone or touch with
firmware >= 2.0. This is thanks to Apple changing the hashing scheme
yet again. I'm sure it will eventually get reverse engineered, but it
is slower this time than the last time -- I suspect partly because
each time Apple does this crap they push more folks to devices that
are not so actively hostile to third party software.
There is a wiki setup to track the progress of reverse engineering the
new hash scheme at
http://bluwiki.com/go/Ipodhash . It's mostly
technical info.
Great link Todd, thanks!
