okay, I finally jumped on the iPod wagon but I have a few questions for the Apple pros on this forum. I bought the 80gb one and so far so good.
1) I installed iTunes and I noticed that there's a restore option which I'm to assume one would use if/when something did go wrong with my iPod. I could use that feature to restore it back to day one. my question is, does anyone know which specific folder (in the iTunes folder) that is the backup? I ask this because I tend to reformat my PC often and I would like to have that back folder "backed up" if/when I do need to reformat my iPod.
2) how do I transfer music and videos "as is" without iTunes wanting to convert stuff that I don't want or need converted? surely there's gotta be a way.
3) what kind of battery life are you iPod owners getting from a single charge?
-Thanks for any help or suggestions.
