You can use many apps with the iPod for what you what. I've used Apple's Backup to keep some things, I've made a bootable disk image with Disk Utility and Disk Warrior via Carbon C…

Can't iSync keep two different Macs synchronized? Or is that another program from a 3rd party?

Would you get a 4gb, or a 6gb mini? If you're only filling about 5G, I'd say go with the obvious choice and get a 6G mini. If you don't plan on using the extra 14-16G then why pa…

Thanks for that link, that is a great little app he has done. I now thinking that I might use the Parser contained within that app for my own reader (as it is Open Source) saving …

Why bother using an unsupported private framework when existing sample code is widely available, and doesn't limit your userbase?

That's a great looking picture.

Here is another that is way cool! http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=68.05...1263&t=k&hl=en

That one is really cool. Do they have an above view of the resivoir the Russians made by putting a nuke in a river?
