I've only just downloaded it, but it's great! Works for me :) Splits files perfectly, simply. Intuitive interface, and for the price, what a deal.

Book2Pod CommentaryRequires iPod firmware version 2.0 at least - Version: 1.2.2, 7/23/2005 10:38PM PST

If you don't already have Notes on your iPod, using this won't put them there. I have an old clickwheel iPod with version 1.5 firmware (the best Apple can do, although it runs Linux without too many surprises ;-). I do rather like the way this supports reqular expressions to mark chapter boundaries (the preview and setup stages work like a charm, just not the Send function.) Nice idea. Wish I hadn't spent $400 for an iPod that was obsolete in three months, a bit of stupidity Apple has taught me never to repeat.

This is an absolute necessity for any iPod owner - whether you know it or not. Try it once and you'll be hooked. Combined with Project Gutenberg (http://www.gutenberg.net/) you can have Thousands of books with you at any time.
