Re: Little Snitch

Re: The new ipod nano 5th generation video to computer and DVD to ipod?

They will need converting into a compatible format to be put onto the iPod. I believe Handbrake will do it for you, and quite easily too. HandBrake (http://handbrake.fr/)

Re: Little Snitch

Re: Growl and Adium?

Don't think I could use a Mac without Growl these days, very customisable, and you can choose what apps alert you and what for. You can even send the notifications to another mac on your network.

I installed SilverLight when it was first announced, hadn't found any use for it though, so got rid.

Unlocking a phone isn't illegal. It just may go against the contract or EULA you have with your provider. You own the hardware after-all.
