  • apple's offering 10% off on the Monster FM transmitter, but it's still $69 (before discount); the iTrip is $35 and you can get a car charger for about $20 - that's still $15 cheaper for both the charger and the itrip compared to the Monster transmit…

  • FWIW, I confirmed the program, BUT my TiBook is NOT eligible for the upgrade program apparantly because I got thru a university with the educational discount. The tech said that might change, and that I should call back in "a few weeks."

  • most of those programs, from what i've seen, allow you to import the songs themselves or possibly songs + playlists. Don't know about just the playlists. i'll play around with some of them i guess.

  • i've only bought 2-3 songs. The limiting factor is that you can't stream AAC over a home network (to either TiVo or SLIMP3)

  • no replies!!! OK then, anyone know how i might find out? The sony clies use the palm OS so I would have thought they would sync with macs out-of-box; but they don't - you need "the missing sync" thing. What's different about sony PDAs vs p…

  • why would they have gone out of their way to disable mac users from accessing their site? I can't believe they are seriously just trying to be a-holes; is there some technical reason for this?
