thanks, Pacanis.............we can download movies from the internet but only can show them on our ipods,,,,,,which is fantastic.........the Lufthansa flight that we take from here to Frankfurt is 5 long hours and unless you're seated in business class (yeah right like I'm going to spend $7,000 for a few drinks and a dinner with a cloth napkin) you're by yourself to amuse yourself....no movies or anything to watch....I love this new ipod which I bought at Christmas.....not only can you listen to music but you can watch movies.......fantastic......even my husband bought one as he travels so much........it really does make the time go by...........
