iPod NoteReader Notes

Posted by pudge on from the waiting-for-apple-to-ship-my-ipod dept.

An anonymous reader writes, "Apple has released a document on how to use the new iPod NoteReader." The highlights: you can link to other notes, or to tracks on the iPod, or to dynamically generated playlists. It handles 1,000 notes, up to 4K each, and caches up to 64K of notes in memory so the hard drive doesn't spin up. The notes are stored as text files in directories and can be organized by directory.

  1. How to put a Wiki on your iPod by august · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I wanted to point out a nifty piece of software- VoodooPad ( http://flyingmeat.com/voodoopad.html ) which will export it's wiki contents to the iPod notes folder (in the latest version, 1.1 alpha).

    It turns your ipod into a Wiki on the go... Here's a great writeup of the software from
    Oreilly entitled "Wiki meet iPod"- http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/3164

    Disclaimer- I wrote the software.
