IIRC the new ones dont mind usb 1 or 2 its just quicker with 2.

I also think im right in saying that firewire is no longer supported for transferring, or at least thats the case with mine.

you can use the old USB 1. my old PC transfers file great to the nano

Simon, seeing as your Croydon as well, where did you get it from, , so many deals on this type of thing it's getting confusing !!

Amazon seem to be the cheapest

I'll be selling my 4Gig soon as i have just bought it's bigger brother.

I'm sure they supported firewire still! Firewire has always been an apple thing and its quicker than USB2 even and used to charge the ipod as well....You might need to buy a different cable or something though.....Oli.

ISTR USB2 is actually faster than Firewire - 480Mbps against 400 for firewire. There's a new firewire out now - Firewire 800 - but I don't know of a peripheral that supports it!
