Fazimoto: An Apple Camera Connector would probably do the trick. I have experience using them, and find them a little slow to transfer photos. But the benefit is, if they are not RAW photos, you can view them on the iPod’s screen.

I really like the 80GB Photo Safe, as it has slots for every memory card type you can think of, and is much faster to transfer photos. 5 minutes for 2GB—10 minutes for 4GB.

Michael, I’m curious: how would using a $30 Apple Camera Connector for my 80gb iPod video compare to your little friend? How fast is a 2gb SD card import? Your field proofing of this device could be helpful to me when I take my vacation this Fall.

Josh: To be perfectly honest with you, however I manage my money is none of your business. I work for all my stuff, and buy it all my own. That’s all you need to know.

@Josh He works very hard for what he has. His parents don’t buy him any of it. Bet you don’t know that he lived without an ipod for a year, waiting for the iphone to come to Canada.

How do you afford all this stuff?!?! A FireWire 800 Drobo, 80GB photo storage unit, 16GB iPhone 3G, mobileMe, etc. I wish I got all that stuff! If I were your parents, I’d tell you to cool off a bit and live with what ya got for a little while…

Technology can be a blessing or a curse!

Staying connected to your purpose and The Masters Plan
will make it a blessing.

I don’t believe how the average computer user can remain in
The Fullness of That Blessing with-ought a mac.

I find your thoughts to be inspiring, encouraging and life giving.

Michael, keep up the good work!

You are a blessing!

Glad your back Michael!
I was looking through your Flickr photos, and all I have to say: “Incredible”

They aren’t shooting to replace the OS with a web offering, they are using the web to tie a great family of products into a cohesive whole regardless of device or location.

That’s exactly right. Apple is, more than anything, about the experience, whatever medium it is in — iPhone, Mac, or MobileMe.

It’s good to have you back, Michael. Can’t wait to read some new articles.

I would add that Apple appears to have really thought this through. Now they have the trifecta; the best overall computing experience with OS X, the hands-down best mobile experience, and now it looks like a great web tool to tie it all together.

No way! How’d you twitter from Africa then? (And how’d you survive the plane trip?)

I’d sell the Touch to you if I had one. I sold the one I won to buy some more camera equipment. I’ve been iPodless for a little under a year now.

Actually, I think the biggest news was Scott Bourne converting from Canon to Nikon
Also, I think sproutcore or ObjectiveJ may end up being bigger than MobileMe.

And finally… Are you looking to sell your touch now that you’re getting the iPhone?
