Now that my iPod is in my loving hands, it needs some stuff. Unfortunately I could not swap it for a photo ipod as some have done (local apple store said I needed a receipt), so any color apps are out.

But otherwise - What should I download? What do you recommend? What are some good pod download sites?

And what about hardware? Keep in mind that I am on a very limited budget at this point, but at the very least I will be buying a protective case. Again, recommendations.

Thanks for your enlightened help all. If I could, I'd hug each and every one of you wink

Same here.

and for a case, cant go wrong w/ an iskin. I got a clear one and they are fantastic!!! I dont use the belt clip, but I am a freak about keeping my ipod clean so I use the including screen cover, and the wheel slip screen

GodRockDJ, be sure to IM me. I've reviewed just about everything out there, and for me to put everything in a post would take up pages. I should be on later this weekend with some important info ).

If you're anywhere near a network, MyTunes is a great program. It lets you download, not just stream, shared songs from other people using iTunes.

I also listen to several podcasts, most notably the Dawn and Drew show. For that, you need a program like iPodder.

Thanks for the advice peoples. I'll be sending a few pms! I've been looking around ipodlounge.com for some help as well. I can't decide between a rubber skin case or a metal case... pros and cons anyone? I know I'm going to drop it a lot -/
