awesome! i actually bought my iPod in early february or something, and FINALLY started using it about two weeks ago. it was horrible! it had been sitting on my desk, untouched for months, just taunting me. i bought it thinking i was going to get an apple computer (yeah, unfortunately i'm not yet a switcher) but turns out instead i'm going to hawaii instead. anyway, my computer was running on ME..so finally i upgraded to XP, and realized my computer is too old and i did not have USB2 OR firewire...so FINALLY, i got around to getting THAT too! and now i am a happy iPod-user (i pretty much just use it while walking to class so far...) i even still hvae the box on my desk, just because it looks cool. anyway, enough rambling. enjoy your music!
