Im sure most of you have heard about the Ipod Linux project. I recently joined their Dev team and I so im helping port the kernel to the most recent ipod models.
EDIT:
It looks like Apple has released a new series of Ipod. Since the ipod photo is no more, I think I will sway my efforts to porting the kernel to the newer generation. Freeipods.com has updated their products, so I think I'll go with them. Here is my refferal link. Thanks again.

Erm, i remember this free ipod business going around earlier this year. Im not sure if you can actually get one or if its just a scam. Either way, good luck ... and you never mentioned anything about a twin sister?!

Freeipods.com has been around for a while and it is legitimate. I personaly know several people who have gotten ipods from freeipods.com and other freepay.com sites sponsored by Gratis Internet.
Wow! you learned that much C/C++ that fast!
Sure, 3 months was plenty of time. Its pretty cool being able to program in C for your ipod. An SDL port is almost finished too.

Most likely 18 or older... but honestly who is honest on the age eligibility questions? It's more like you need to be 18 because of the credit card stuff.. I think

Yeah, if you complete an offer and get 5 other people to do the same. There probably is an 18 and over requirement, though I don't recall ever being asked about my age. Im 16 and I have a credit card, so its not a problem. There are credit cards for minors just to let you know. Visa Buxx is what I have.

Nice! 3 months! Ive been looking for some good ANSI/ISO C references to learn from. Coelurus is a big help too !
One thing i dont understand however is how you went from this

I didn't know anyone was still going to that site...
That was three months ago and at that time me and the Penguin were having relational problems. *couldn't get slackware to install* Im using linux on two of my computers as of now(one with ubuntu and one with slack). So my oppinion has changed. Ipod linux added alot of feature to the ipod which wasn't found in the default OS. Secondly, there realy isn't away to develop apps for the ipod default OS.* no doccumentation*. It just happens that ipod linux is the most advanced OS available for the ipod. You don't have to be a linux enthusiast to be realize that...

sorry it's not Windoze that's everywhere... it's LINUX
