Adding More Space to the Nomad Jukebox?

A member of the Anonymous Coward clan asks: "A Nomad Jukebox would be great with a 20 gig HD! I'm impatiently waiting for someone to confirm that it can be hacked by replacing the standard 6gb HD with a larger one." Has anyone tried this yet? With the popularity of digital music increasing, I don't think 6gb will be enough for some users (including me!).

I've got one.

According to nomad world there will be some expansion kit in the future. Plus a car adapter (RF this time, not some crappy cassette tape), and a remote control (there's an IR receiver on the front of the nomad). I haven't opened mine up, as I like it and I'm not an EE by any stretch of the imagination.

6GB is a lot of space, even if you encode at 160kbps, as I do. There's about 1.5GB taken up by pre-encoded music, including readings of Robinson Crusoe and Frankenstein, plus a lot of classical and a nice mix of other music. Since then I've put a good number of my CDs on it and I still have 2GB free.

Now for the real question: anyone hacking a USB interface to let me upload music?
