The iPod nano 7th generation uses the same file structure as other iPods, but appears to use a database checksum that hasn't been reverse engineered yet. Given that the 7th generation nano has Bluetooth, I hope it's a more attractive target for exploits and reverse engineering. I agree that it's a lovely form factor!

oh, I totally had the impression it was its own beast just from the UI being what it is. Maybe time for me to dig into this
I'd be 100% down to help, if you do -- my 7th gen iPod Nano is the best MP3 player I've ever owned, the Bluetooth compatibility alone made it fantastic, and I'd love to get some new lease on life with it (or even just tinker with it. Being able to not be dependent on iTunes alone would be awesome)
