Ipod to test it out. Sure enough all you have to do (on a XP machine) is plug it in a USB 2.0 port and it fires right up. Grabs a drive letter, up to "f" and you can drag and drop to the "Ipod" drive. Really works slick. It also give the benefit of your own "tunes" at work if you like. If you are already up to drive "f" you will have to "disconnect" temporarily a cd drive or whatever, because Ipod only drabs up to "f". It seems to have surprisingly fast transfer rates
I believe that is that a windows bug and not anything to do with the ipod.
Cause I had a network drive mapped to F and was unable to access a USB hard drive (iriver mp3 bug), as I already have internal drives up to E.
Apparently, windos (xp) is unable to see that an F drive already exists, and then increment up to G. I'd swear I had this work correctly in win2k (plug in->drive appears at G).
Stupid drive letter designation. What can't windows be easy like linux? I plug a drive in and an icon shows up on my desktop.
