I unfortunately use a PC at work (laptop) but its new and has an iLink (it a Fujitsu Siemens) and would hate to waste it. I also have an iBook 600Mhz at home.
So... can I use a PC formatted iPod on a Mac? That would be nice...
You can also use a Mac iPod with a PC, if you get xPlay or EphPod.
You can also convert a PC iPod to Mac through Apple's iPod firmware installer for Mac.
And although Apple doesn't support it, you can also convert a Mac iPod to PC, though it's a bit tricky.
You should buy the PC iPod because it comes with the PC software -- which unlike iTunes is not downloadable -- as well as the 4-pin to 6-pin FireWire converter. You don't get these extras in the Mac iPod package, even though the price is the same.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Cool deal...
How is the best way to trade out of an older 10 gig iPod to get into a n new 20 gig?
E-Bay?
what is the best ideas as to trade up at minimal expense?
