'Soul Purpose'
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Hehe, I helped a friend through the dance of iPod ownership yesterday. He IMed me saying "I shouldn't stop by the mall because I'm feeling itchy for an iPod.". I told him that was precisely why he SHOULD stop by the mall.
Four hours later he stopped to visit me with a shiny 40GB iPod photo. (On sale!)
What is the difference between the click wheel iPod and the others? Which is newer?
The click wheel iPods are the newer ones. They lack the row of four buttons above the wheel. A more elegant design is, I think, the only advantage (eta: to the rearranged buttons) (plus on the iPod Mini they save space where space is tight).

Not true. They have about 50% more battery life than the third-gens.

Oh, I meant that was the only advantage to the click wheel, not to the 4th gen overall. I see now that my post was ambiguous.
Dear lord. I told TiVo, for the first time, to automatically record suggestions. Lots of Angel and Buffy, clairvoyant little beastie that it is, but -- Simon & Simon? I blame Magnum PI. Still, I will peek.
Has anyone been using TiVoToGo, especially with the demo DVD burning software?
I quite like it, except the software doesn't (yet) make it easy enough to clip and crop recordings. I may be in the wrong interface, but the DVGate and Click To DVD software that came with my Vaio make that functionality much easier.
I see iPods are the discussion lately but i have only scrolled the most recent replies as i am about 600 posts behind in this thread.
my question is, is it possible to use more than one computer/iTunes to upload songs to your iPod without erasing songs that you already have uploaded? if not i think i shall scream.
It is, as long as you don't synch your iPod to either PC. I tried this way for a while, but changes I made to the tags wouldn't populate to the iPod, and I ended up with duplicate songs, especially when moving playlists.
Ephpod may help.
hmmm...well obviously it is synced, but i don't know how i did it. how do i undo it? because i have about 300 songs uploaded to iTunes here at work and i'd really like to get them onto the iPod today. duplicate songs i could live with.
is that ephpod.com?
