RE: Linksys Wireless Media Adapter - £17.99 + P&P at eBuyer

Will this work with a Linksys G router - given that it works on 802.11b? If it does, will it downgrade the router speed to 11Mbs for everything connected to it?

RE: New ipod 20gb colour

At the risk of offering any kind of advice - you could just ask for a discount in the store. I got £10 off my iPod Mini at Currys by telling them it was cheaper elsewhere. If you don`t ask....

Wanted: Attractive (small) Home Cinema Speaker kit

Wife and children are focing change of living arrangements requiring removal of large floor standing speakers and replacement with small (but pretty) versions. Quality is not the No1 consideration but will be connected to powerfull Yamaha amp so needs to be pretty robust.

RE: 10Gb iPod at Dixons - £199.00

At the risk of sounding like an Apple evangelist, The iPod was originally for Mac PCs only hence the Firewire which all new Apple computers have. USB2 was fairly uncommon then so Firewire offered a major increase in data transfer speeds over existing USB1 based MP3 players.

Unfortunately, for Apple (and Sony to some extent) the IT industry has followed the USB2 route rather then Firewire apart from some digital video devices so there is a good chance that future generations of the iPod may well support direct USB2.
