We only part to meet again.

There's always a story... It appears that the Firewire part of my 3rd Generation iPod has stopped working! Although I could, navigate the screens, listen to music, charge it, but alas I could not manipulate the music library!! I even tried manipulating the library via a USB cable and for some strange reason after about 2 minutes I would get a weird "Battery is getting low"-like message, then the iPod would power down.
So with no choice, I sent my precious off to the Apple iPod funeral grounds.... It's called the iPod recycle program, I found out about this from my buddy Drew (Thanks Drew!!!). All you have to do that is take your old iPod into the Apple Store, and they give you 10% off your next iPod purchase. The 3rd Generation 20gb iPod was a great device and has helped on several occasions to make the mudane daily tasks far more colorful, even with it's mono-chrome screen, and nice red backlight buttons!
Once you go black, you never go back.
Presenting the NAACP approved version of the iPod!!I've opt'ed for the 60gb Black iPod, and yes I know it's been recently slated to be replaced! Now I can finally use an iPod with my D810, Ubuntu, and of course Banshee!
