Introduce Your iPod to The Penguin
If you are competing for Geek Kudos with your friends, then you should try iPod Linux – it is considered safe for iPods from version 1 through 3, and they are working on increasing support to cover other iPods too.
Why settle for just playing music on your iPod, when you can install databases, games, and a plethora of useful utilities as well?
You can play everything from Dope Wars to Soccer, view your photos, use a Word Processor get Weather forecasts, and even write your own programmes using the standard C++ library.
Installation is relatively simple, and the good news is that if you don't like it, you can uninstall it and go back to the old iPod firmware.
You should check that your iPod is supported before installing it (you can view the list at http://ipodlinux.org/Generations) but as long as it is supported things should be relatively trouble free.
It's the ultimate iPod 'hack', and it really increases the usefulness of your iPod – making it almost a fully fledged PDA as well as an MP3 player!
