Re: FAO Ipod people
I've got a 3g 40GB and i'd have to say the battery life is still fine 12 months on. The 8 hrs is an optimal number. Set up an 8hr playlist and listen from end to end, don't touch the ipod, use the backlight, play games. Mine lasts about 5 hrs between charges, but I am hopping all over the place skipping songs etc, and in this weather useing the backlight.

Ditch the phones, I've got the Senheiser MX250? (noise cancelling jobbies), fantastic. To the extent that I get irritated seeing people on the tube listening on the original white ones, they don't know what they are missing out on.

Secrets, back up your iTunes, get a spare HDD to do it on if you have a big iPod and lots of tunes, I worked out it took 40+hours to rip all my CDs onto iTunes. I don't want to do that again.

AirPort Express, a fantastic addition if you have a wireless network. All your music in one place (on the PC) and playback through your hifi.
