Doing (lot) more with your iPod !
Well... Aditya finally refused to allow Sumeet to experiment with hisiPod, but for those of you ready to experiment, try porting Linux (not
the full-fledged version, but uClinux) on your iPods. It allows you to
play video too apparently! Check out http://ipodlinux.org !!
The iPod has an ARM7TDMI processor, which does not have a MMU so you can't port your standard Linux on it, but uClinux works pretty fine! Another thought, and I will need to give some time to it, before I will know if it works out or not, is trying to connect the iPod to my cell through USB, for connectivity (over an EDGE network), load Skype inside the iPod, and see if I can make a call!
