Question about the I-Pod: I've been thinking about buying an external HDD so that when I go to friends' places, I can... erm... back up their music files for them. Would the IPod work for this? Is it difficult to transfer the files from a friend's computer over to the IPod (ie do you need to install special drivers/software)? I assume the transfer speed is pretty good as well.
ed: and what about the Nomad? I assume it can do just about the same stuff the IPod can.
