Just a FYI, the 60GB video iPod offers 64MB cache and 30GB offers 32MB.

Thanks for all your replies. Here is the link where I read this: http://www.apple.com/au/batteries/ipods.html The relevant section is at the end of the page. I dont know anythi…

Also Im assuming the 60GB IPOD (with the larger cache) is no good for me. I want a flash drive (which I understand I need if I want to use it during physical activity such as joggi…

Ok so its not applicable to IPOD Nano's. I assume then, its a problem applicable to ALL portable media players that use hard drives?

that may not be necessarily true. i'd check the specs of each individual player.

Well, the details of the amount of cache will differ from player to player, but I think all hard drive-based players probably work in more or less the same way. They read data from…

magneto, what conclusion have you come to?

Oh, for a Delicious Library interface like this: http://www.steelskies.com/coverflow/

Can't say much for Coverflow as an interface, per se. Right now you can select individual tracks, let alone get any info about an album. But for browsing through a catalogue...man …

it would be kool if you clicked on the album and the jewel case opened up, displaying the list of songs on the left side of the open case. then you could select the song and play i…

unfortunately coverflow seems to cripple my system whenever I start it up - I don't think it's particularly memory secure! I have a 1GHz TiBook with 512Mb Ram - not amazing but st…

That looks really cool, but even if you COULD do that with a thousand or more titles (memory issues aside), would you really want to?

performance shouldn't be the issue, as it handles the 1329 albums in my iTunes collection quite well. (although on a brand new iMac). but interface-wise while the metaphore makes …

Agreed. For CD art it looks pretty spectacular and a great way to choose your music. I can't see a need to access book info that way. Coverflow's great for what it is--I hope he ke…

I use my 4G iPod keep myself busy while ridding on lawn mowers all day. The past few weeks I have been having a lot of problems with it. At times it will begin to skip, sometimes i…

I have a picture of a charger and an outlet on my screen how do i get rid of it plugging it in doesn't work i cant listen to music and i cant see anything else

Simple: Plug it into a power outlet with a charger.

pluging it in doesn't work

Are you plugging it into the computer or into a charger? Which charger? Are you sure the power supply is okay? Which generation of iPod are you talking about?

it was my cousins i think it is a 4th generation i have no charger right now but she plugged it into the wall i believe

That picture definitely means "plug into the wall outlet." Some computers don't provide enough power to properly charge an iPod, and the 4th gens (in my experience) want more juic…

as they said, a restore has been done to the ipod, and it is asking for it to be plugged into a wall adapter, so the firmware can be flashed
