Some info that might be of use: I have just gone from an 2G iPod 15GB to a new iPod Photo 30Gb. The photo is minutely thicker (and I mean minutely) - it fits into the dock for the …

Was surprised at this. My mom called more than a ago week to say she bought an ipod mini. She then called a few times after to help her figure things out. She then finds out that t…

Apple is no longer including a Firewire cable in with the new iPods - only USB2. AM I the only one who thinks this sucks? USB2 is a fairly new addition to the Mac line while Fire…

They should have included this. http://images.apple.com/ipod/images/...wusb042803.jpg

I was surprised to see the drop as well, especially as a laptop user. I can have my mouse and HotSync cable plugged into my Powerbook's USB ports and still have the iPod on Firewi…

This really sucks for those of us who don't have a new Mac. I have an iBook 700 G3 and was waiting for the 6 gig Mini. Now instead of $250 it's going to cost me $270. Kinda crap…

Thankfully I can use my old firewire cable from the 3g I currently have (going to get a new 30gb photo, only 300 with student discount). And IIRC, Firewire 400 and USB 2 are pretty…
