I think the problem is the iPod firmware: it won't go into disk mode unless it gets power from the USB port.

However, older iPods (2nd gen, I think, maybe 3rd gen, too) that didn't charge over USB (FW charging only) could do disk mode self-powered - but ran out of juice quickly.

jthiemann, thanks!
I'm going to buy a powered USB hub too. I just think it isn't that good idea to carry a lot of stuffs with the n8*0, but it's ok until now.
