Hi,
I would want to play music with it and use it to store pictures so I
would be looking at a 30g one I suppose. Presently I use a Median
Pocket PC and transfer to it is easy with the SD card loaded from a
card reader attached to the USB port. Well as long as the files are
slashed and tagged.
I have just been watching Click on BBC news 24 and the subject was the
way apple encodes its itunes. I was thinking that maybe this means
that only music files with this added secret code can be either loaded
or played or both.
