I'm spending a lot of time moving DVDs I've bought to the 5.5G iPod video. Keys to this are DVD Decrypter which is available many places though no longer actively developed. From the ripped vob files, I've found that Allok MPEG4 Converter rocks for getting .mp3 files to drop on the old (or new) iPod. I think with all the Kim family excitement I've not mentioned the 5.5G 80G iPod is really sweet. Many defects as always with software but well worth some of the pain.
The video on the small screen ? it works, it just works.

- "At 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, less than 90 minutes after James Kim's body was found in rural Oregon, the story had received 1 million page views on MSNBC.com, making it their top-rated story. The Iraq report was No. 12 there. On CNN.com, Kim's story had received 755,000 page views by mid-afternoon, nearly double that for the Iraq story."
- "Over the past two days, traffic at NBC11's Web site, NBC11.com, has experienced a 92 percent increase in page views over the average day, and an 88 percent increase in unique visitors, "driven almost entirely by the Kim story," said NBC11's vice president of creative services and programming, Jim Monroe."
Gripping Story: It was tracked my millions
Glad to see I'm not alone yet very sad that it didn't get attention earlier. Why does this father have to die for this to become big news and get coverage by the main stream press ? A family of four disappears and doesn't show up for their hotel reservations or their jobs and it takes days for us to find them ? We have the technology to see to it that this doesn't happen.
Heck, if the gate on the damn road was closed they most likely would never have ended up stranded in the first place.
