iTunes 4.9 hidden gem

Read this on Appleinsider.com this morning:

Launch iTunes 4.9 and bring forward the preference dialog from the "iTunes" menu. Take a good look at the "Podcasts" icon -- third from the left. Leaving the window open, launch your system's "Display" preferences and change your display to 256 colors. Return to the iTunes preference dialog and check out the new "Podcasts" icon. Odd.

It does work.

I'd already heard about this, but thought it was really quite cool...

Anyone tried syncing a RAZR with iTunes via bluetooth yet?

i don't get why its a hidden gem, its just a little weird because of the colors... its not like apple decided to put that there and worked it in with their setting so that when the color is on 256 then the icon is different.

Its not a gem so much as it is a little bug.
