OK Folks!

Santa Claus brought me a great new little gadget for xmas!  Yes, the new 32 GB 
Ipod Touch.  I've listened to a couple of podcasts re this and have got to 
grips pretty well with it's function and how to get around it.  I have a couple 
of questions however.  I know there is a more specialised list which T and T 
run but wondered if there were many on the list?  Also, does anyone have the 
sub details?

Now for my questions:

1  What is the easiest way to get .avi files onto the ipod?  I believe they 
need to be converted first, how do people find the accessibility of these 
conversion tools?  Also, where can I get the most accessible one from?

When I go into the music section of the front screen, is there a way to easily 
switch between artis, album and song views?  How easy is it to set up play 
lists?

Anyone got any suggestions for really cool aps which are free?  Also though, 
any paid ones which, again, are accessible? 

I am pretty knocked out at how easy the touch screen is to manipulate.  As an 
additional question, how accessible are apple mac computers in general?  
presumably, there is more facilities in the full blown voice over ap?  I hear 
it is akin to window eyes?  So, does that mean you can get the list of links 
etc in safari?

Are there any more tutorials etc for the touch?  And my final question,  How 
similar is it to the I-phone?

Best wishes.

Steve
