I have to say I haven't found that. I use an ishuffle on my own system,
and my partner as a 30GB video ipod. The annoying thing about the ipod
is that you can't easily transfer music from your own ipod onto another
computer. Which, I accept, is the point, but it's annoying.
Let it synchronise with the nano, and see what happens.
