This past Sunday my 30GB iPod photo finally died.  It lasted just over three years and it was a true veteran.  It was dropped, kicked, washed (accidentally), and chewed on by Tonks.  Sunday afternoon after returning from the <a href="http://froebe.net/blog/2007/08/26/more-photos-of-our-house/">build site of the new house</a>, I went back out to the car and dropped the iPod three times in 60 seconds.  Low and behind it finally died.  I took it apart, reseated everything but when the iPod started, I heard the click click of a dead hard drive.  After an hour of trying to coax it back to life, <a href="http://www.froebe-fibers.com" onclick="return alinks_click(this);" class="alinks_links" title="Rebecca Froebe" style="background: transparent url(‘http://froebe.net/blog/wp-content/plugins/alinks/images/external.png’) no-repeat scroll right center; padding-right: 13px; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial" rel="external">my wife</a> offered to buy a new 30GB Video iPod for my birthday.

I loaded it up with podcasts, music and video.  What I’ve noticed is that when I go iPod -> Music -> Podcasts -> <a href="http://chris.pirillo.com/media/">The Chris Pirillo Show</a>, I saw a normal podcast and no video.  After a few seconds of thinking I messed something up, I didn’t, I tried iPod -> Video Podcasts -> <a href="http://chris.pirillo.com/media/">The Chris Pirillo Show</a> and video was found <img src="http://froebe.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" />   I would have thought that it wouldn’t make any difference if I played the video podcast from “Podcasts” or “Video Podcasts”, but apparently it does.
