Got the mini last night. I already had the 10gb G3 'pod, but it wasn't any good at the gym...I'd get perhaps 17 minutes of running and it would freeze up. The mini works great! No freezes for the whole workout with the armband mount. It's just what I want...plenty of space fo...

Advanced method for fitting large library into 4GB Mini

3226 byte By nagromme at 2008-2-24
iTunes will automatically make a playlist that fits the Mini, but I propose a more advanced--but low-effort--method for providing access to a collection larger than the Mini's 4GB. The key is that in iTunes Preferences you can choose MUTLIPLE playlists to auto-synch, while excluding others. I d...

Hi, right straight to the point. Is the iPod mini a hard drive or a CF drive. I may be wrong but I thought that a hard drive had moving parts whereas a CF card did not. If it is a hard drive it would skip when exercising etc. If it is a CF card it would have no moving parts and never skip. Could som...
