The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is here – Wikipedia on your iPod, uses iPod linux – “Encyclopodia is a free software project that brings the Wikipedia, which is one of the largest encyclopedias on the world, on the Apple iPod MP3-Player. It has been successfully tested on a third-generation iPod and on an iPod mini, but it should also work on other iPod generations.”[via] Link.

refuses to install to my Nano. boo.
Nope, iPod Video not supported either. Kind of like coming out with a Thesaurus for Ham Radio. :-(
hey gang, on on a plane – but once i get back i’ll be able to see what level of tinkering is needed to get it to run on other ipods that support ipod linux. i’m pretty sure it’ll run on a nano.
Cool, but no match for Wikipedia on my PocketPC!
ipod video owner here. :(
