I already emailed Apple in regards to this idea, but what about having a port of iTunes?

You plug your iPod into your Nokia 770 through the USB port, load up iTunes Jr, connect to the iTunes Store, buy or download whatever you want through your 770 into your iPod.

It doesn't check to see if your audio files are in the 770's library (and thus delete them when it finds they are not) ... iTunes Jr should be set to "add files only" and never delete them.

Thus, it never asks itself if the 770's records match your iPod's records, so it never deletes what it can't find like it does normally on a standard PC when one of our songs goes missing suddenly and then gets erased off the iPod without my permission. I hate that.

With iTunes Jr., we could still purchase stuff through Apple's site, we just wouldn't need our computer, or any computer at all, in order to actually USE our iPods. I hate that they made the iPod so PC-centric, but this idea would free up the iPod for full-time supercoolness.

In my humble opinion, anyway. Thanks for your time. You also have many great ideas on here already, keep them coming!
