00:00.10GeorgeI don't see much point in upgrading my current iPod (a 30GB second generation one) until I can get at least twice the capacity for < 200 GBP
00:00.10Leeds<PROTECTED>
00:02.10Leedsfair comment... to be honest, I've sort of stopped using my iPod for portable stuff - since I'm rarely away from home for longer than a day, and I've got enough capacity on my phone (and I'm planning to buy more today) and enough battery - and it means carrying less hardware around
00:02.30Leedsinstead, since all my CDs are in London, I use the iPod in my flat as my source of music
00:04.39Georgegood plan
00:04.41Georgewhich iPod do you have?
00:06.07Leeds40gig 4g
00:06.23GeorgeI think that was the most popular iPod
00:07.15Leedsand also a 20gig 3g with a broken screen which I just use as an external hard drive
00:07.24Georgerich bastard.
00:07.41Georgeoh I remember when you did that
00:07.45Georgeyou sat on it didn't you?
00:07.47Leedsmy insurance replaced it...
00:07.49Leedsstood on it
00:07.54Georgeworse :)
00:08.03Georgehow the hell did you get insurance to pay for that?
00:08.04Leeds:-)
00:08.13Leedsaccidental damage
00:08.17Georgeheh
00:08.19Georgenutter
00:08.19George:P
00:08.31Georgeand they let you keep it?
00:08.31Georgeodd.
00:09.11Leedsthe point was that Apple told me that they wouldn't repair it, they'd just replace it - so the insurance people paid to replace it, but they decided, for some reason, to cover a 40gig rather than a 20

12:33.54gregjit works like crap here
12:34.04gregjunless I use cross over office
12:34.17Leedsit's a utility which does some stuff to a file and saves it back out
12:36.11gregjoh, so it's pretty simple I gues
12:36.29Leedsright
12:37.04Leedsin fact, as far as I can see, it's not much more than a frontend to two other utilites which actually run on the command-line! :-)
