The Nano connects and charges via USB. I need to look into a firewire connector for it.

I can't wait till Apple comes out with an even smaller music player you can stick up your ass, they would call it the Irectum. And you Mac users would be used to taking it up the ass.

Wow, thanks for that priceless gem of truly ageless wisdom.

Actually, that'd be the iRectum.

And no, I'm not used to taking it up the ass as a Mac user (I'm split -- Windows Desktop/Powerbook laptop). As a matter of fact, I'm quite pleased by the service. Ran into some snags at first but, after a bit of time, Apple made it right AND compensated me well for the lost time with the laptop.

So it looks like the only person with something shoved up their ass is you -- remove that pole before you post again, please.

Interestingly, Apple seels the iPod (in all shapes and sizes) in Australia, but we have no access to iTunes to actually put music on the things...

What idiocy is this??

Probably some pain in the ass law on your end that makes it hard for them to sell you stuff.

No, actually its a decision made by Apple not to make iTunes available to Australia.

The government wouldnt know what an iPod was, even if you shoved one up their collective asses.. (oh ho!! iRectums for all!!)

You don't have to use iTunes...

Many programs out there let you put music on there without it. It can be any old MP3 that goes on there.

Well this is news to me... an, I have no doubt, to the multiple salesmen (including 2 reps at an Apple store!! ) I've spoken to about an iPod who all insist that iTunes is "the only way" to load music onto an iPod.

(Interestingly, when they said this, I always countered with "but iTunes doesnt let you access the service from outside of the US, so how do I use it?", I was always met with blank stares and responses like "Uumm.. I dunno then..")

So Aussies can't download iTunes at all or y'all just can't use the music store? If it's latter, what's the problem? Paying to download music is silly. If it's the former, have someone from the US send it to you via IRC or a messenger.

I'm sure their management tells them not to mention them. They're not supported by Apple, after all.

Cant download anything from iTunes (the Aussie site which was due for launch on Oct according to Vernal's post, is still "unavailable when i checked this morning... Oct 7 local time).


Personally, it doesnt really faze me one way or another. When I'm out, I'm (90% of the time) in the car, and thus have the radio. Otherwise, I have close to 100Gb of music on the 'puter HD (oh, the life of the radio DJ) to choose from. I can live without an iPod (and given the price they want to charge for one, it's cheaper to get an MP3 player by another manufacturer (Creative for example) than to "go with the flow" of iPods).

Samsung recently released that they are going to be able to Triple
the holding capacity of Ipods without a change to their size. The next gen
Nanos will be able to hold 15G at a minimum! You will have the option
to get one with Bluetooth or More storage . Fricken sweet.

I don't know how it comes packaged in Kangaroo-land, but my iPod Shuffle came with a disc that had iTunes loaded on it, and I've yet to download a single song from the iTunes music store.

So if you are still able to install iTunes, then you can put music on your iPod...you don't have to have downloaded the music through iTunes.

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?
