Airport Express + iPod base station.

Plug your radio into the base station, play iTunes thru it, your iPod thru it ... whatever. Plus an ethernet port for Wireless Internet.

And if you really want to go out there, access streaming movies from the iTunes Movie Store (name it what you like: Quick Time Media Store?) to your color-LCD iPod. Video out to the TV?

'Charge cycles', 'memory effect' and all that stuff were a problem at one time with the old NiCad variants, This could be significant if your battery cost several hundred quid/bucks and was for a Beta camcorder or somesuch. Several studies were published when Lithium based batteries were introduced to show that these do not exhibit these effects.

iPods can get confused as to the charge in the battery over multiple cycles and will an incorrect reading on the bars. A reset (MENU and PAUSE/PLAY buttons held down together for a few seconds) will usually clear this.

we all know that the current video iPod uses a broadcom 2722/2724 chip
for H.264 decode.

has broadcom yet updated this series to jam in 802.11?
(running analog composite wires out the headphone jack is
getting a bit old).

i'm not worried about power since iPod -> iTV would bypass the decoder
and use the battery for 802.11.
