Engadget reports that Apple has some really ugly sounding issues with iTunes 8 - this one for Windows users is really bad:
Meanwhile, Windows-based iPod touch users are seeing Blue Screens of Death when plugging in their players due to some other undocumented problem. The solution there looks to be a reboot with the touch plugged in to force the system to recognize the device, run a sync, and turn off photo syncing (not the most elegant solution, clearly).
How did that problem not show up in testing? I can see the remote speaker issue (see the linked article) falling through the cracks, but there's no way they shouldn't have caught the Windows/iPod touch one.
