Sweet! Thanks. Downloading now. Wow! 56MB!? I've only used this iPod with my Macs, but I don't have a Mac right now.

Hmm. Still does not see it. (I'm running the updater from C:/ProgramFiles after it installed it) My iPod battery is dead. Do I need to give it a little charge maybe? I was hoping…

Yeah, it needed a slight charge. Does not seem like the recharging feature works though. It's a small plug on the computer to a large plug on the iPod. Does the smaller plug not…

Dropped from full bars, to 2 bars to 1 bar... eek! Will it make it!>! Will it crap out before the restore!>!>! Stay tuned...

Damn. It just crapped out. I hope it's not fubared since it died in the middle of a restore. :rofl

Phew. Works. All is good. Gen I lives to see another day.

ive never seen someone have such an intense conversation... with themselves. bravo.

What an interesting post.

Glad to hear and fun to watch the saga unfold. This thread was amazing good job I am also glad your ipod is working!

A 4-pin firewire port (which is what most windows computers seem to have) does not supply power, so the iPod can't charge from it.

When I dropped my mini it did this for a while, but a restore and running the disk check test fixed it somehow.

If you set the iPod to "manually update" then you can do this, but it's really not a very good idea, since if your iPod has any problems (or if you lose it) you will also lose all …

What he said. If your iPod has any sort of hiccup or technical problem (and if it's hooked up to a Windows machine, chances are very high that Windows WILL cause some hiccup event…

Their collective butts? Still, this is entirely doable. I believe there have been Japanese MD players with similar capabilities (although admittedly this is easier when you're dea…

Doable? Sure! Worth while? I think not. Isn't the idea of an iPod personal music that one enjoys privately while in public?

I think you misunderstood the point of the article, GH. It's saying that the host computer, using a presumably new version of iTunes, will process track names, albums and artists i…

I did misunderstand. I can see this as a very important accessibility issue, but I still don't see it as a "mainstream" item. Drivers don't seem to care that they aren't concentr…

yeah this will be good I have nearly crashed my car a few times looking at my iPod!!!

Why ask us how much Nano's cost at the Apple education store. Check it out for yourself at http://store.apple.com As for August, I wouldn't expect any new iPods at WWDC. Chris

The nano 4gb is $199 at the education store.

Thanks for the replies... I totally spaced out, didn't even think of looking at the education store... chabig, how was the rain in Colorado?

I'm in Colorado too and it is crazy. I moved here from Seattle a few months ago... reminds me of home.

Flagheimer, even with tax, the price of an iPod through the Apple Education Store is going to beat the BX price. Guaranteed. Those folks in Dallas that decide all the BX prices d…
