[CUBE] iPod Woes :(

[George Pepper]

FWIW... Both problems with the iPod - The FireWire and Audio jack's 
touchy contacts - are most likely the result of "repetitive stress": 
The contacts have become intermittent due to repeated stress and torque 
on the sockets... Just replace them [Yes, yes: Easier said than 
done]... I have a 1st Generation 5GB iPod, and the audio jack is 
beginning to show the same symptoms due to MANY motorcycle rides in my 
jacket pocket... Eons ago I was a roadie: I've seen every conceivable 
brand of audio gear suffer this fate at one time or another...

Oh... Yeah... Been gone for a while... I did get an Xserve and set it 
up as a client, but I can't give up my Cube! ;^)...
