Thank You for your continued support and contributions!
I'm not aware of any ipods having a software-queryable serial number, and to be honest the serial number isn't something you'd ever want to display during normal use -- it's ugly. You'd want a nonoffensive human-friendly string instead. (Current default is 'Rockbox!' which we think is appropriate)

(But with the ipod6g, the serial number apparently is accessible via software-query. It's displayed in System->Debug->View SysCfg.

Currently keep track of which-is-which (and remember which has which permutation of sd cards in it and any faults it has and when it was last synched etc) via that serial number, but didn't realise the number was accessible without having to reboot in OF.(The serial number also indicates the ipod's date-of-manufacture, apparently)
I really like the playername being in .rockbox only because it allows me to mark which build I'm running and carry it around with them
the other issue I have is allowing themes to access user data isn't the way the rest of the stuff works
[Edit]what if we looked in the root at boot and if exists its copied into .rockbox
