Well, thanks for the update Steve.
I ordered mine last night (in black), and hopefully can get it here in Panama within 3 weeks when i'm scheduled to get on a boat to go to Columbia. Sounds like I might have at least photo support by then. but as reported above, maybe their internal database has been changed, which would mean, i have to use iTunes, and that's no good!!!
Hopefully you guys will have one by then and at least get the music working right with the v-iPod.
Thanks again,
PS If you want to read a bit about Panama, and see some pictures, take a look here...

I am also done with the Barcelona, Spain story, also with 3 pages and LOTS of pictures.
