Since my iPod shall hopefully arrive in a few days (can you tell I’m getting a little too excited here?), I’m trying to think of additional things to do with it.
- Biking and jogging with it (that’s a given)
- Using it while on the road, such as in a train (see above)
- Backup space for important stuff such as OS X Keychains
- Emergency OS X
- Emergency Windows XP (possible? if so, can I make OS X boot off FAT32 and effectively have minimal installs of both OSes on the same hard drive?) – note to self: don’t forget about PEBuilder
- Storing contacts, calendar data, notes, playing tiny games
- Nifty, universal, spacy and fast USB stick replacement with USB 2 and FireWire connectors
- Podcasting
Now, as to that last item: does anyone have actual experience with it? I know there’s dozens of clients already, but are decent “podcast stations” around already? Can I essentially do an automatic daily download and get all the news I care about, such as EU and US politics, European and North American IT news, Mac news, etc.? Is this “seamless” just yet, and if not, is it about to get there?
