Very cool.. Just a shame it needs a degree in Nerdnux to make it possible. Apple could easily have done this themselves if they wanted. So Why didn't they? Im guessing its down to…

Is it possible for me to adjust the resolution to make the video even smaller? I can only watch movies on screens that are the size of a postage stamp.

im in long beach, ca. a student too. but its sold out everywhere in 4gb (black & white). can't find one anywhere. reps say sometime next week. bummer

This is a surprise. I bought a white one this afternoon at the Santa Monica (3d Street Promenade) store. They had plenty of white ones ("Just don't ask me for black...," the surl…

i'll do that. thanks for the heads up. pasadena is a bit far from long beach, but so are the rest. im headed that way anyways. it was two seperate stoes, fashion island, and sout…

Not Pasadena -- the Santa Monica store, just up the 405 from Long Beach. I'd call first though, such heavy foot traffic all day. Maybe they'll hold one for you if in stock?

Only the 4gb Black is sold out in the Mission Viejo Store. They have all the others. And the armbands. No tubes yet. The online Store has everything. Shipping free and free en…

i can't find it anywhere.... called all stores - sold out. this is as of mon. morn.

not bad. i finally got one from mission viejo. i called just about every store in so cal. and theyre out. thanks to the mission viejo poster!

I downloaded iTunes 5 and saw that there was an option for VBR AAC but it's grayed out. How do I activate it?

Could be that it wont work until you have the QT 7.0.2 update? Just a thought

*sigh* yes it is. I didn't install QT702 yet. I was waiting for issues with DiVX, 3ivx, and Toast to be resolved before I install QT702.

It may say it somewhere, but I haven't found it. What kind of format is music saved as, on iTunes? Is there a way to better compress each song such as in mp3 format or such? If t…

Thanks for all that info! So I need to change the format of the songs to be able to store more of them right or is it not that serious? How do I do that? Is there some type of so…

You can do it right through iTunes. But keep in mind, if you are converting from one lossy format to another (ie MP3 to AAC), there will be a noticeable deterioration of the sound …

FYI: A 128kbps AAC will have the same file size as a 128kbps MP3 unless you start talking new-fangled VBR encoding, etc. Unless you're incredibly intent on getting exactly 1000 s…
