Ok, yes I am old school and not with it.. but I just bought the 30G video Ipod. Got it at Best Buy because I had a bunch of those rebate gift cards plus a debit gift card from Christmas.. so I save over $160.. but I also had to get a holder/case to keep it from being scratched up.. gotta keep that shiny black face and chrome back end shiny and nice.
Anyway, I have already ordered the interface to the radio in the truck so that I can control it through the stereo controls and take out the 6 disc behind the passenger seat. I am now moving forward with putting in a subwoofer, even though my current speaker setup is pretty good. Am going to look at an Alpine 10" or 12" slim design or the new transducer based sub. I am waiting on the release of the transducer unit, which is supposed to be next month or so. :0fftopic

Anyway, back on topic, I didnt realize just how cool these Ipods are.. I am watching these podcasts, specifically VOD cars.. some of them are really pretty cool. I have just scratched the surface. If anyone has any suggestions, let me know.. I have already converted over 2400 songs to the Ipod.. there is some time to be put in regarding ratings and playlists and such, but the end product should be great. No wonder these things are completely changing car audio.. :tu:

p.s. I am not watching all 5 trunkmonkey vids.. pretty good, the pediatric trunk monkey edition.

Tried to import a file I bought off of Musicmatch.. wma format.. wont import those files because they are protected.. :flaming: tried to burn it to a cd, that doesnt get it done either.. so I guess I HAVE to buy it from itunes if I want to be able to use it on my Ipod.. hmmmm

It could be worse. I live so far under a rock that I've never even held an iPod. Until about a month ago I'de never even seen one in person. :rolleyes:

Well guys, I dont feel so bad now.. except I will be able to put every CD I have on it, have plenty of space for videos/movies too.. I will have a direct connect to the stereo and get rid of the 6 disc in back.. they are incredible.
