Also, dissing Chinese-made MP3 players seems a bit weird as I'm pretty sure all iPods were made in China.
- breakall 5y agoI saw that post too and immediately ordered the iFlash Solo adapter. Coincidentally I had just run across an iPod video in a drawer that wouldn't boot up... it was about a 20 minute project to replace the hard disk with the adapter and a big SD card, and the iPod is working great now!
- SamBam 5y ago> Also, dissing Chinese-made MP3 players Fair point, but I was using it as a short-hand for saying "cheaply-made Chinese junk" -- the kind of fly-by-night companies that anyone who has tried to buy stuff on Amazon in the past few years is now familiar with. Of course quality stuff is also made in China, and I was not referring to that.
