What's the deal with enhancing functionality on those new i-thingies? Worth the trouble, or restricted by firmware?
First generation Nano here. Running Rockbox on it, just fantastic. Too bad they went and changed the bowels of 2nd gen and up Nano machinery to prevent open source software from running... you get video, loads of settings, custom skins. Watching Rocky on 176 x 132, not to mention thumbnail Aldrine, mini-Jake + James, and dwarf Rammstein. Breaking the Apple OS mold was a really good thing for the Nano 1st gen. Do those new things give the user more freedom, I am not very up-to-date with the whole "jailbreak" movement.
