I have over 50 movies and 200 songs on my 80GB iPod. The new ones also support Notes, which can be plain text with basic HTML including links...so you may be able to store Oracle documentation on them for viewing too, not sure.

I have been patiently waiting for an answer to 'How do I install Oracle ?' over in comp.databases.server.oracle for 4 years. Ah so that’s where you’re all hiding.

The difference was there were no forums, so you'd deal with lazy people personally. “I’m sure it wasn’t like this in the old days”

Used to take the manuals with me everywhere. Including the beach. Of course, this was at the time when manuals were actualy printed on paper and therefore, portable. Now they're printed on cds. And only readable if you are permanently attached to a power point and lug a PC around with you... I'd pay pure gold for a convenient, portable, reliable and solid way of reading/listening to CDs/DVDs without the paraphernalia and fiddleness of a laptop. And if it was sand-proof, even better! “I’m sure it wasn’t like this in the old days”

Forums are good place to get some ideas or clue about the answers you are trying to find…but, always double check it.
