And arguing over whether or not the word choice for somebody's opinoin of a post is right or wrong isnt when the purpose of this thread was to attempt to get an effort started for those players?
Llorean:
There's basically two ways to measure output: Objectively and Subjectively.
Objectively, you would take a known pattern, and compare it with the output, such as an RMAA test, so you can see what is happening.
Subjectively you would simply do a double blind test comparing it to another source you subjectively considered 'good'.
He really hasn't showed any results of either sort of test, and the only test that really matters is the objective one since subjectively everyone has different opinions on what sounds 'good'.
But either way, what's important here is things relating to the update process (does it have a firmware partition, are firmware updates encrypted, etc, etc) and high resolution scans of the board.

THis is what everyone should do: Relax. I'm sure the guys over at iPod linux will discover what to do. That will make things a whole lot easier for us Rockboxers. Let's just wait and see what they can do in the mean time.
scorche:
As they have done nothing for the second gen Nanos, one should not expect much (not saying this will happen...just providing a base). Waiting for other people to do things is never a good decision as we suggest a lot on these forums. If you wish for a port to happen, one must take charge and work on it themselves to be sure it will happen.
GodEater:
...and given the last time I spoke to the guys at iPL, and they said "we're not working on the 2nd Gen Nano", I think it will be a long wait indeed.
