 Oh boy, Kevin got one the other day.  He's completely enthralled.  He 
 keeps talking about how much he can load on it.  I'll have to mention to 
 him that you have some DVD conversion software  AND I just told him, 
 and he wants to know what conversion software you bought


I did a google search and did a little reading on the subject, and decided to 
try the package by Cucusoft.  I was able to download it, by giving them a 
credit card.  You can download a trial for free first, to see if you like it 
first.  The trial version puts a big TRIAL across the iPod videos though, but 
at least you can see how easy it is to use before you buy it.  It was either 
$29 or $39 I think.I didn't try any of the others.

 If I'm out weeding, raking leaves or pruning and I don't want to listen to
 myself gripe (funny, I don't mind cleaning horse stalls), I play loud, angry
 rock and sing to it (as long as no one is around).

I do what you do. But no Rock. I have some classical music on my Ipod.
Please don't ruin your hearing when listening to you Ipd!!!

Just regular Ipods are so cool as well. I am doing a lot of boring work
right now, finishing the woodwork (trim) for our new house. So I load
recorded books into my computer and from there into my Ipod. Listening to
books makes work go much faster. And you don't have to carry boxes of tapes
or DVDs around with you. That little Ipod is worth its weight in gold for
me.

Me too!  That's the only thing that keeps me sane doing menial labor for my
boss's farm.  I spent three days helping Marjie decorate her giant tree
and the rest of the castle and then had to wrap over 500 presents (no lie,
she's rich AND has 9 grandkids). That's NOT in my farm Manager job
description!
 The murder mysteries work best for me.  I borrow the audio books from the
library, download them to the I Pod library and then load what I want to my
Ipod at my leisure.

 one, but instead make them in 8G, 80G, and 160G sizes I think.  Anyway, 
 I've
 put probably 8 DVDs on mine, plus about 300 songs - and I've only used 
 about
 8G!  It's amazing how many times I find that I have a
 spare 10-30 minutes to pull it out - driving somewhere with my husband on
 the weekend, waiting in the doctor's office

You're kidding?!?!?

How great!

How much are we talking for the iPod and the conversion software?

The iPods with video cost about $199-299 at www.apple.com , depending on
screen size and memory, and I think the DVD conversion software was about
$30.   I think Cary got my iPod at Sam's Club for a little less than retail
price, and I downloaded the conversion software.


Once I figured out this was feasible, I splurged and bought four new Parelli
videos - the new Seven Games, the new Fluidity, plus two others.   A couple
of these videos would  really great for people who want an into to
Parelli...I can't think of the name of the one I thought particularly good
right now.
