Let's just say the person I bought this book for is not the most technology-oriented person out there, and they were able to understand this book and figure out the iPod because of the book. What more can I say? It works!

So that's what I did wrong with my iPod!

Very helpful. Might be a good idea to buy this.

I didn't read it cover-to-cover, but I did look over each chapter to glean any pertinent information. Of course, some of the book is already outdated, but is still a good reference.
