Arrow iPod Linux:Has anybody tried it ???


Hey guys, I brought Apple iPod Nano (widescreen) 3G - 4GB
I just wanna know whether upgrading it to iPod Linux will have any harm over it, and whether it's reversible to downgrade ? Please share your experience while using it here...

Counting on you guys....
Bye

yes it is reversible
i spent like a month with ipoflinux and i expirience wasnt as good it was with rockbox
rockbox is much better in terms of features compared to ipodlinux
and it is easy to install(try this link http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/vie...RockboxUtility ) too
PS:If you have bought nano video or the newer model, im sorry to say but they are not supported

Any firmware modifications made are reversible. be it installation of Rockbox or iPod Linux. And was mentioned, iPod Linux isn't nice at all. Even Rockbox for that matter was something I removed in a day 'coz of the horrible UI.

The newer generation of the iPods aren't compatible with most modifications (iPod Linux, Rockbox & iPW).
