I think this is a bad ideam, little Jimmy was listening to Cinderalla on his $400 ipod and he dropped it down the stairs, or spilled chocolate on it, or dropped it in water...etc]]>May 25th 2006 12:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/

My wish for the memory-challenged Nanos, BTW, is a media card slot. Then, I could rip different things to differend media cards to make up for the short-changed Nanos.

They also sell Pimsleur on audiobook chips, which sounds like what you're looking for. There's a player for it too ( http://www.iofy.com/player/ ) but I guess that defeats the purpose of the iPod!]]>Mar 7th 2008 11:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/Proud owner of a ZEN microphoto]]>May 25th 2006 5:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/May 26th 2006 8:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/
Several colleges are doing this as well - of course, you don't have to have an iPod, any player that can support podcasts would work fine.]]>May 26th 2006 10:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/ little white trojan horse...

...that STILL lacks an FM-tuner and voice recorder!

All we can guess is that Apple wants to make sure you don't waste time on MP3 activities that don't require you to keep buying from iTunes. Listening to your favorite FM radio station or recording podcasts on the fly doesn't put money in Mr. Jobs iPocket. ]]>May 30th 2006 7:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/25/ipod-has-new-role-as-educational-tool/May 30th 2006 2:51PM
