I think this is pretty retarded also, almost everyone I know with an iPod doesn't have USB but does have firewire.

Wait a minute. I have a 3G iPod and I bought the USB2/FW combo cable from apple because I wanted to see if I could use the iPod's HD at work (PC).
This cable allows USB2 transf…

Those retractable ones look cool.

I don't have any numbers right here, but I recall that Firewire is 400Mb/s stream, and USB2 is 480 Mb/s burst, giving Firewire the edge for file transferring. I also recall that ev…

Finally, "Shuffle Songs" on 3rd Gen! — #1
Yay, Apple hit the nail on the head with this firmware update.
Having "Shuffle Songs" on my main menu makes me very happy and was a feature from the 4th gen iPods that I really wa…

Did they change "Browse" to "Music"?
Finally, "Shuffle Songs" on 3rd Gen! — #3
"Browse" is indeed now "Music" for me (40gig 3G iPod - the 2.2 -> 2.3 update). But I don't see shuffle songs in the main menu. Anyone else?
Stupidity edit: Aha, you have to …

It looks like there was a graphics update as well.

Can now also save on t…

What if someone were to have deprotected (HYMN) Music Store songs? Anyone know if they would still play afterwards?
Also, anyone know if goPod still works after the update?

Finally, "Shuffle Songs" on 3rd Gen! — #8
To stop shuffling, just browse and play something else, such as by artist, album, song, etc. In that regard, "shuffle" is kind of like "play". You don't unplay, you just play somet…
