OS 10.3.9

Will the new iPod classic work work with OS 10.3.9? I know that the official requirements say you need tiger. iTunes 7.4 seems to run just fine on my computer.

According to the iTunes 7.4 page these are the system requirements:
Macintosh Requirements

* Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later or Mac OS X 10.4.7 or later required for iTunes
* Mac OS X 10.4.10 or later required for iPhone
* 500MHz G3 processor or better
* QuickTime 6.5.2 or later
* 256MB RAM
* Combo/SuperDrive to burn CDs
* Broadband Internet connection (DSL/Cable/LAN) for buying and streaming music

No mention of 10.4+ being needed to sync with iPods.

I'm not going to buy tiger with leopard just around the corner. But I'm still not even sure if my system will run leopard...
