HP seeks larger role in iPod mania

Nice device...: I got one about 5 weeks ago, just when they dropped the prices on the 4th Gen. to make room for the new ones. It's a nice device. It's not perfect, but from what I've read, none of those mp3 players are 100% trouble-free. I couldn't use iTunes on my PC (QuickTime blocked access to one of my CD-ROM drives!), so that wasn't up to a good start, but then I found a Winamp plugin that works admirably well. I now have 615 albums loaded on it.

One major advantage of the iPOD is all the 3rd party stuff available for it - some software, but a LOT of hardware - be it cases, enhanced batteries, FM transmitters, etc... Even some cars have builtin iPOD support (it's either Mercedes or BMW, can't recall), and Alpine has a CD player with a iPOD hookup on it. Like you said, where will it end?; Posted by: Mike (not Cox) Posted on: 03/31/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
