Hi all, what do I need to know? Is the firmware difficult to install? How much does it speak? What do I need to know about the nano to know if they are compatible? This is an IPod nano 2gb, that's all I know for now. Thank you, I appreciate any direction.

okay the firmware isn't all that difficult to install, bryan hartgen recorded an excellent tutorial on it. I do have it on my nano, the ipod has to be a first gen, and that means that the back is metal and the front is plastic. rockbox will tell you the minues, and will read the file names, the battery life, room left etc. if anyone has any questions add me to msn or e-mail me.

Any word on when rockbox will have it set up for the 2nd gen? And how can I get this tutorial?
