Apple’s done it again! No, this isn’t usual Apple fanboy news. – If you have installed the latest version of iTunes ( Windows ) via their convenient update service, chances are, you have the “MobileMe Preferences” control panel installed without any warning whatsoever! Bad news folks, such activity is going to be commonplace until something really bad happens.

Apple’s iTunes Store has finally come to Singapore and 40 over countries. unfortunately, at this time, it is only for iPhone apps, aka the Apps Store. Looks like Apple is keeping to their style of doing things their own way, after the recent launch of the iPhone 3G, with iFixit.com already posting disassembly pictures online!

The iTunes store list now include Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Czech Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Israel, Korea, Kuwait, Lebanon, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, Pakistan, Panama, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Qatar, Romania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Venezuela, and Vietnam.
