You need to wait a couple of weeks - Jobs is expected to announce iWife
'06 at the Expo.

I'm perfectly happy with my old copy of Girlfren (the 1993 version,
which I have used exclusively since then) and works perfectly well and
does everything I want. Except - er, ah, yeah... Anyway, I don't want to
replace it - I'm used to the package, it's pretty reliable and I know my
way round most of its minor flaws.

I can't believe I'm supposed to get a wife just because of iTunes.

Who says she's self-anointed?

Well, yeah, but Girlfren 1993 was a Classic app. Won't work properly
under the new system. Probably a privs problem. It's a bit drastic but
you _could_ try giving World access to the Girlfren package.

That's Apple for you.

Yes, I would really prefer to lug a CD player and boxes containing a
thousand CD's rather than carry my 60GB iPod around, the thing is just
too light and small to possibly be practical.

We're talking about an automobile player here, so there's no need to
carry a CD player. Nor is there a need to carry thousands of CDs, just
the few one would listen to on a given trip.
