How to hack and crack your new IPOD "Wide"
OK, I have not actually hacked the new ipod Touch yet, I do not have one and have not seen one in the flesh, but I wanted to have a post on subject anyway. I love the idea of being able to go online on the device, but if it's all geared towards just heading to the itunes store and buying a song, that's a bit rubbish. I want total freedom to download things from wherever I please, I wonder if it'll be possible to install a bittorrent client on the device and just pirate away as you go?
Not entirely sure why they have such a weedy amount of memory, it's a shame they're heading away from the hard drive basedness of the ipod. I thought it was a misprint when I heard the new players would be 8gb or 16gb, surely 80gb or 160gb makes more sense? I guess I don't listen to more than 8gb worth of music on a regular basis though, if you can sync regularly enough then that's OK. They do look a lot like the new iphone but with the phone bits removed.
These new devices do look nice, and maybe now the old video ipods will be cheap enough for me to justify getting one, even though my original ipod is still perfectly serviceable...
Actually 200 quid isn't bad for the new player anyway, my current ipod was something like 400 ...

Oof, not feeling too clever today, went to the popbitch party yesterday at The Player in Soho (ooh, google maps has new features). Went for a couple of drinks in The Blue Posts right across the road before it too. That's the kind of thing I miss about London, the only thing, it's proper boozers like that. The party was good, nice to see some people, though we were on a super flying visit so didn't get to speak to everyone there that I knew. Saw Nick Beggs from KAJAGOOGOO's new band. I think. We had a few cocktails and spoke to some people and stayed later than we intended, it was NICE! Watched an episode of LOST when we finally got home, and am a bit tired today. Couldn't sleep on the train for some reason, hope I can tonight...
Apple released the new IPOD then, and it can play video now, as expected. Good that they're not calling it something new, it's just an improved colour IPOD. Not sure how cool it'll be trying to watch content on a screen like that, they should have gone for making the whole thing a big touch screen like that mockup I posted before. So, not sure I should get one (even though my ipod is practicably worn out, I've had it for over two years, and the new one is slimmer, and has far better battery life, and, and, and...) I need to have a look around and try and do some clever video watching with my existing IPAQ. Maybe I can connect it to the IPOD, using it just as a hard drive to store TV shows?
