I guess I'll just wait until I get my Bush bad-presidency-guilt-alleviation/constituent-placation-check this summer, and give it to Steve Jobs for a new one with more memory and a better battery, but it was a gift, and I liked it, and the suggestion given to let the battery on it drain completely and then recharge it fully helped. Strange as it sounds, I'd rather have the first-generation Nano than a newer one, since it was the first edition. But I wouldn't want Windows 1.0 or AOL 1.0 (1.0--Sheesh, how 1993 does that sound?) - --Mark, who still uses diskettes **************It's Tax Time! Get tips, forms, and advice on AOL Money & Finance.

That's the one thing missing from my eMusic purchase. Many thanks, Tom ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V7 #352 *******************************
