I agree. We had a Milestone for about 20 minutes, grin. Took it out of the box and played with it a bit, couldn't seem to get it to do much so we packed it back up and sent it back. I've spent a bit more time on the iPod but it's looking like that one may go back too. Terese At 06:34 PM 9/6

Hi Brent, you don't need iTunes at all, if you use Anapod. you have to buy Anapod, which has 3 different prices. They are $20.00, $25.00, and $30.00. The $30.00 one will work with all iPods. Arthur Barney - Original Message - From: "Brent Harding" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discuss
