Goodbye iPod Firmware

without comments

Apple’s iPod product is popular, but its abilities are fairly limited.  Want to play back Ogg Vorbis files or customized the user interface?  Too bad.

Thank goodness for Rockbox.  Rockbox is a free-software alternative firmware for most iPods and many other portable digital music players.  I happen to use it on my 2nd generation iPod Mini, and I love it.  So, if you are feel like trying something new on your boring old iPod, check it out.
