Hoser from Painted Jellyfish send me a very interesting link. For those who have an iPod or are thinking of getting one of those new-fangled iPod Touch, the implications of such a design are endless! Now, I know what you are thinking, "If the iPod Touch already has that capability, how does having Linux on my iPod benefit me?" True, the iPod Touch does come with more functionality than before, but until hackers find a way to install Third party apps like on the iPhone, you are pretty much stuck to what Apple, Inc. wants you to use, including the limited capabilities of iCalendar and other such programs. Also, if you have a "Classic iPod" or a new iPod Nano you can take advantage of using apps and games just like the Touch and iPhone.
Interestingly, this past weekend Mike's Ubuntu Blog also wrote an article about how to install iPodLinux without losing your music. Which is reminiscent of the Wiki that iPodLinux.org has on how to do so without losing information.
