DO NOT get an 80GB video!!! It doesn't work with rockbox at all and
nobody knows why. I have a 30GB that works fine (you need to either
install a build from http://www.sefia.ca/rockbox/index.php or compile
it). The only thing AFAIK that doesn't work is playlists/using tag cache
mode. I don't know how color/photo ipods work, though.
