i'm not sure if this indicates anything... obviously, G5 PM will be updated some day. perhaps soon, perhaps not. but this is just apple future proofing themselves - and nothing more than that. it doesn't mean imminent update of PM...

iTunes package has an icon for WMA files. but that doesn't mean iTunes will be supporting WMA format anytime soon...
 
true that

Just that all the information flowing around about this big update, then a small update for when the new Macs are released. And they have added the new Mac in this update.
 
There has already been one revision to the G5..... If someone with a G5 dualie 1800 checks, they will probably have a different version than the single 1800
