Pretend you have an iPhone: iPod Video UI Hack

by

The brilliant people over at the iPodHacking forums have released a UI hack for your old (or in my case, current) iPod Video that can make the interface look pretty close to an iPhone.

The hack requires that you run Windows, as the program iPod Wizard is required. You must also not be afraid to potentially mess up your iPod, updating/changing your firmware is required and there is a possibility of error. I’ve done the hack myself, and it is definitely worth the trouble. The menu screen is really crisp and the Now Playing screen is amazing.

While I can’t offer any technical support, I can give you the link (click on the image below). There doesn’t seem to be that many problems, just a few bugs that’ll be fixed in time.

    Alot of bloggers are not really pleased with this new iPad.There was just 2 much hoopla regarding it and alot blogers got disapointed.Quite frankly, I for one see lots of the cool potential uses of the gizmo. Third-party soft for playing tunes, games, newspapers and magazines and books, all sorts of cool stuff, but IMHO they failed to sell it properly (aside from the books). It looks rather unfinished
