Other than seeing the inside, is there a reason people perform autopsies on Apple Products?
post #8 of 18
yes, one reason is to see who makes the components... for example, a small company making a key iPod component could see a big increase in revenue

did anyone else notice that in picture 5 the screen reads: "FireWire connections are not supported. To transfer songs connect the USB cable provided. Press Center to dismiss"


seems odd that firewire is not supported.

Cost and space-saving, most likely. If you can only put one or the other in, USB 2 is the right one to choose.

Thanks for the heads up on the FireWire part.

Looks like I have to invest on a USB 2 PCI card on my PowerMac G4.

Does anyone know if the battery in the Nano is easy to replace?

According to PhoneScoop.com... this is probably just the first of a whole line of phones. I'm guessing (just like the iPod), they'll get better during each iteration.

Phonescoop.com:
"So what's next for iTunes on phones? We may see one more iTunes phone from Motorola before the year is out, or perhaps early next year, but don't expect anything radically different from the E1. The next iTunes phone will also be an existing model you're probably familiar with, just with iTunes software loaded. You won't have to remove the battery to swap memory cards, but otherwise the features will be nearly identical to the E1.

2006, however, will bring much more interesting ROKR phones from Motorola, some with iTunes and some without. We snagged a brief glimpse of one such phone just a few weeks ago."

If you have USB1 is will work. Just not as fast

Well.. the PowerMac G5 is the first PowerMac which features USB 2.0 ports.

Is there a list of suggested USB 2 cards? I have a PM G5, but if I add a USB 2.0 card, it doesn't sleep right, rather, it simply hangs when trying to sleep. Looking in some of the manual, it's a known problem with PM G4s too. I know I can use a hub (I am using one), but I'd prefer not to use one if I have open slots.

I've tried a few different cards, all with NEC brand chips. One will sleep properly only if I don't have devices connected.
