Hmmm... a nano-bit...
Oddly enough...
You can put photos on the iPod nano... but you have to use iTunes to do it... and it isn't by individual photo... it's by folder... I put a couple on it to see how it works... but I can't see keeping them there for long...
No video out (Unless someone figures out how to do that using the docking port...)
Okay... checking the manual (which you have to download from Apple)... I'm using a PC to put stuff on my iPod (until I get a Mac with a faster USB port). On a Mac you can use iSync or several other methods to easily copy stuff to it - contacts, calendar info, to-do's.
The contact info is easy... it's whatever is in a vCard file. Just copy it over while the iPod is connected.
Calendar info... the version of Outlook I have doesn't seem to export in vCal or iCalendar format (that I can tell) so that isn't an option.
The To-Do list feature... only works with a Mac. Darn...
The Notes feature... other than a note on the ipod telling you how to use it and a short blurb in the manual there isn't much info available on it... it works on both Mac and PC... but I believe there must be a size limit.
To test it I downloaded a book from Baen's free library (One of their James H. Schmitz anthologies (the one I haven't purchased yet))... converted it to text (800+K) and copied it to my iPod... readable... but VERY tiny text... but it didn't all show up. I'll have to try some smaller things... not sure what I would want to carry around on an iPod for squinty reading...
