Would it work for an 2nd gen ipod nano? Anyone please tell me if this is possible? *googles*

I just bought a 8gig nano off my friend for approx. 18 dollars and 68 dollars deleted debt. Hows that?

iPod Nano Second Generation (Nano2G): NOT SUPPORTED BY IPODLINUX


Wait, it gets better:
Will probably never be supported due to encrypted firmware.

No 3rd Gen iPod Video's on eBay, it seems…

If there was, I could hock my 3rd Gen Nano and get one of those. Bigger screen, more space, iPodLinux… *Sigh*

6gb iPod Mini! PWNED!

Hahaha, anyway, I was looking to buy an iPod Nano about a year and a half ago when my sister got a new laptop for school and it came w/ an iPod Nano. She had a mini at the time, so she gave it to me, and now I've formatted it and ska-i-fied it and had it for the past year and a half. Free iPod FTW!

'Cause I thought The Classic had like 150gb+, could play vids, and was pretty bulky.

iPodLinux won't work with neither 2nd or 3rd gen due to encrypted firmware.

So the Classic is an updated version of the Video?

If so then everyone with a video vote for Classic :)

2nd or 3rd Generation Nano's. I'm talking about the Video's.

I am leaning towards selling my Nano, and buying a 5th Gen Video…

I get a bigger screen, 22 more gig of storage space, and iPodLinux :)

Classics are crap. Video's are amazing.

Classics:
-Encrypted firmware
-Ugly UI (IMO)
-Better processor, but what good if you can't use it (no custom apps, etc)

Videos:
-Easily hackable
-Easily themeable
-Okay standard UI, great with some touch ups.

2gig iPod Nano non-video, came with my computer… its been totally full since I got it.
4gig iPod Mini - doesn't work anymore. The battery died and I got the nano above free with my new computer so I didn't bother trying to fix the battery.
Also have a phone with a 2gig micro card which can play music, but I don't have anything on there atm since I don't need it.

But it can be used as an MP3 player. Like, a phone isn't an MP3 player, but loads of people use it as one anyway.

Got it in 2004. Left it in snow for 3 weeks by accident. Dropped it on the asphalt numerous amounts of times. Worked fine until last year the battery died, probably would still work fine if I replaced it.

Now it makes a nice paperweight :)

I own a pink 4gb iPod Mini, will have to replace it soon though since the battery is getting a bit unreliable and it sometimes dies at 90% battery.

Couldn't vote though since it wasn't in the list.

There's only one small (pretty easy) part where you just might end up breaking it. Trust me, the iPod Touch isn't really worth it until you jailbreak it ;)

All jailbreaking is nowadays is basically downloading a program and running it :p
