No problem though... :p
I thing you're bought right in somethings and I disagree with other but all comes down to personal taste, amount of money available and availability on the country...
Agreed.
Quote:Jukebox Zen is great but here in portugal it's the same price of the iPod and xTra version is not even available on the official Portuguese site... anyway ZenxTra is here, philips has realesed their player finally some competition!
Same thing here, but I looked on the American Creative site and there it was...
Quote:Apple in my opinin is making some mistakes, for one the external card reader from belkin is for photos, ok that's great what about other files on the card that are not on the DCM (something like that) folder? I don't thing they are copied witch really sucks for a 99 USD accessorie ( when it gets to portugal it will be like 120 or 130 euros...) I don't think I'm buying one! lol
I doubt if this is Apple's fault or Belkin's fault, but I agree, they should definitely fix that. I don't think they accounted for people using their memory sticks that way though, especially since the iPod has much more storage space. All in all, it's great that Apple has software support for it, it's great they made a card reader, but for 123 euros (the price in the Netherlands) that would be a bit of a shame... haven't seen it or used it yet though (####, I've only known it since the 17th when the new firmware came out)...
To get back on-topic: I did find some code for ejecting removable drives using other ways than MCI (so it works for any drive, not just CD-ROMs)... disconnecting hardware is another issue though, and I have yet to find a way...
