I'll give an non-so-OT reply.....
I have an iPod 60GB version with a camera adaptor. That way, if I go
somewhere without my laptop (ok, it's not happened yet, but it
*might* just happen), after taking pictures, I simply connect my
Olympus (see, I told y'all it wouldn't be OT) to the iPod, and watch
the pictures transfer. I can even view the pictures on the iPod to
know that they're all there and safe, then erase the memory card and
keep shooting. And, of course, drag them off the iPod and into my
laptop when I come home ;)
I used to have a cellphone that I could receive FM radio on. After
having it for a while, I ended up realizing that French FM radio is
no better than FM radio anywhere else ;) and so i use podcasts
instead to grab the news on the go.
Cheers,
