Done that and it works with mp4s.
Thanks.
Now if it wouldn't take so daisies long to convert and then put the file onto the player...

Yeah iDevices are really freaking exclusive about their filetypes.
But at least they don't use some obscure-booty format like .qrt or something

Speaking of iDevices in general, check out the size comparison between the iPod Nano I have now:
and the iPod Nano I want for the watch:

Yep, they're all about the touchscreens now so the "circlepad" doesn't exist anymore

Just what on earth is the point of a Shuffle
I carry a 4 inch phone on me at all times and it doesn't bother me in the least

I need an itunes account to download a free app? That fucking sucks. And that same free app is not available for a German account either. Neither can I even make an account because it requires a credit card apparently.
I'll go and ask Crisp if ze lends me hir account for that when ze comes online.

I swear, shuffles were only made to put in "higher end" claw machines. I'm perfectly pop flyin' with my iPod Touch.

From a purely practical viewpoint, music players like the iPod are kind of useless nowadays considering any smartphone can do the same job, only better. The 3,50€ music player app I bought has lots of options and can fetch album art by itself and lyrics on demand. Saving the 150-200 bucks you would spent on an iPod and getting a good phone instead is a much smarter (heh) choice.

On the other hand the music player has a free app that lets me text message people for free without having to have some expensive cell phone contract.

Unless you're like me and have a perfectly good flip phone and don't want to pay the monthly data coverage on top of the phone bill, and have to be tied to certain phone companies because of backroom deals.
Though, I got an iTouch for free (gift from high school for top 10%), so I didn't exactly have to pay for a music player and deliberate between the two.
