The New York Post claims Apple's iTunes for Windows project is due sooner than previous expected:
Apple is developoing [sic] a PC/Windows Media version of iTunes, which the company plans to have ready by the end of the month.
iTunes for Windows was said to be due by year's end according to Steve Jobs at the April 28th Special Event introducing the iTunes Music Service.

I'm willing to put money on this being sloppy journalism (hell, it's the Post) -- they meant to say "end of the year" instead of "end of the month."
If you're in the general NY region, I'm sure I don't need to reiterate what a heap of pre-soiled toilet paper the Post is.
Thank you.

I hope it is a typo. I alredy have $5 in the line.

It will certainly be interesting to see how/if they charge for it. On one hand it is such a good app they might only supply it with iPod's and then make it available for purchase seperately. On the other hand is the Music Store which will no doubt generate $'s especially if iTunes is a free download...

There is a difference between free and 'plausibly' free. It would be very shortsighted of Apple to penalize possible iTunes for Windows users. It's a Trojan Horse...Apple's using a piece of software to gain mindshare in hopes that people will eventually make the jump to Apple hardware.
The original Trojan Horse was a gift...
I was at the Salem, NH Apple Store this morning to get my PowerBook G4's power adapter replaced (it blew out last night). I also bought a new power adapter as a backup, just because it's worth the $80 to have an extra one.
The store had one new iPod in the window which was functional and they let me play around with the interface for a while. No ear buds or dock, but it still looks cool. They also say they will be blowing out the stock of the old 20 GB iPods if you don't mind the old design.
Also, they had a sign saying "iTunes for Windows, coming this June" to plug the Apple Music store. Very interesting.
EDIT: I meant WinTunes, not? no, wait. leave the d in there.

How about "itunes:wintel". Then they can put it in a weird round package and sell it by the boatload.
The tables have turned!
