Additionally, you can store those text files in directories and scroll through those directories for organization. This is, in fact, what makes Life2Go (previously called Pod2Go) work. Something else that people often do not realize is that you can turn your iPod into a "kiosk" mode where you ONLY can view the text objects. In other words, you're cut off from the menu and are forced to view media that is linked from within the text files. (a commonly-used cute example: say you get an iPod for someone you love. You can set up a little linked-text-file site expressing your love for that person, and have the pages link to special love songs (and even videos) that are special to both of you... and after she gets over the shock of you going to all of this work, she can then convert the iPod back into a normal iPod (i.e., get it out of kiosk-only mode)) It's really pretty neat.
