There's something strange with this cable. I have two Nook Touches, one is my daughter's. Hers connects fine to the computer with any USB cable. Mine will connect cleanly only with a Nook cable. ...

Wow, I'm about to get an HTC Hero and I'm so happy to see that iSilo is available for that format too! I used it for years on my old Palm Tungsten E and loved it. Glad to see that others are still...

I still love my Tungsten E, which has been with me through thick and thin for many years. I have had two mp3 players, but neither has lasted as long as the T|E, which has always been my backup...

Congrats on getting it done! It's a bit scary the first time you do it, then after that you want to take apart all your devices. It's not as much of a mystery as it seems at first. The key is to...

But if you have no input method, you ain't got much. :tongue3: I'll be very curious to watch this development, but I wouldn't jump ship on my T|E until I'm guaranteed an ebook reader!

Six months have passed and I still use my M3 daily. It has earned its hallowed place in my tech hall of fame right next to my T|E. I listen to a *lot* of audio books, and the bookmark feature on...

For that price, it might be worth it to some people. The Windows Media Encoder is free and pretty easy to operate. It might not be that big a deal to convert divx downloads to wmv if you're...

That's good to know; I would never have thought of it. I'll give it a try. I was working with Linux but I'm too much of a newb at it. Rather stick to what I know for now.

I should also add that one of the other promoted features of this device is that it can connect to your tv like a console and play games or movies there in full screen resolution. Pretty cool.

That's really not as bad as I expected. I had heard whisperings that it might be as much as an inch, which is getting a bit thick.
