Mac OSX 10.6.1 released, fixes abound

Just under two weeks after the release of Snow Leopard comes 10.6.1 via Software Update or standalone updater here.  It includes the latest version of Flash, which had been an issue with the original Snow Leopard release. 

How did the update go for y’all? (we had a slow restart). 

The 10.6.1 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Snow Leopard and includes general operating system fixes that enhance the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac, including fixes for:
compatibility with some Sierra Wireless 3G modems
an issue that might cause DVD playback to stop unexpectedly
some printer compatibility drivers not appearing properly in the add printer browser
an issue that might make it difficult to remove an item from the Dock
instances where automatic account setup in Mail might not work
an issue where pressing cmd-opt-t in Mail brings up the special characters menu instead of moving a message
Motion 4 becoming unresponsive
