Providing you could rig up a USB Type B to USB Type B cable, I don't see why there wouldn't be some Debian drivers out there that could help.

The other thing, my MP3 player charges off of USB, does the IPOD? This could hamper the 770 playing nice with it.
The iPods I have always worked with all are compatible as USB Mass Storage Devices. I hadn't thought about the issue of charging, but I think it would still be able to work...the more I think about it though the more I doubt it.

As for hooking up a mini USB to female USB A (ready to connect a standard iPod USB Cable), or a mini USB to iPod dock connector - well I think that might be a little out of my range of work, thougth I guess I could probably hook something together through a variety of different cables, plugs, sockets and adapters.
