I have a hard enough time seeing my regular monitor, nevermind an ipod screen. I'd need a full size keyboard for freeping, too.

The iPod just acts as a storage device for your applications and settings; it doesn't actually run /on/ the iPod, it runs from it instead, or any USB device, actually.

Now, here's the big kicker - since your USB device acts as the main storage and data device, set one up for the kids with their games and browsers and chat software. They can plug it into any of your home PCs including your laptops, game or browse to their heart's desire, and when you unplug the USB device, nothing is left on your computer.

It's a never ending problem in our household that the teenager continually picks up various bugs and critters. Worst case scenario, I have to copy a backup of the USB device back onto it if it gets corrupted, rather than re-installing windows and all the applications.

Yup, absolutely going to have to try this out.
