Hannah, I do not recall the Classic being mentioned on Bryan's site, only the Shuffle, Nano, and other rockbox-compatible players were mentioned. Hope that helps.

I got a i pod shuffle for christmasAt 03:27 PM 26/12/2007, you wrote:
I just received a 160GB iPod Classic for christmas to replace my old 60GB iPod which was having hard drive issues.

If a script were like $20 or even $30, I'd definitely pay, but $75 seems kinda ridiculous. How much does the script help with using the music store?

Also, do most people use Rockbox or just the standard iPod firmware? I'd like it if I could get speech on the iPod, but I don't know if I want to mess around with modifying the firmware. Also, I've heard it can't play stuff from the iTunes store and audiobooks.

Thanks in advance.
