It’s not the streaming iTunes we were all hoping for — that announcement makes more sense to come at Apple’s iPod-centric September event than WWDC anyway — but iTunes 9.2 is on its way, and while you won’t see anything revolutionary in this iterative point update, there is a bunch of cool new functionality allowing iPhone owners to more easily cope with the new features in iOS 4.
Obviously, iTunes 9.2 adds iPhone 4 syncing support (music, video and now PDFs and Booksto Apple’s media management software. Also, similarly to the way iTunes currently allows users to organize their iPhone home screen through iTunes, 9.2 will allow you to organize your apps into folders on your notebook or desktop as well. Otherwise, we’re just looking at some performance improvements, most notably in back-up syncing and scrolling speed. It also gets some nice new eye candy applied to album art transitions:

iTunes 9.2 is only available to developers right now, but it should be available for download concurrently with iOS 4 on June 21st, at the very latest.
