Just an info post really.
I've just downloaded iTunes 7 and it updgraded my 5G 30GB iPod Video from 1.1 to 1.2.
The first useful thing i noticed on the iPod Settings menu on the iPod itself after the update was a 'Brightness' Option. You can now change the brightness of the screen which greatly (IMO) improves battery life, especially if you watch videos on the Pod.
You crazy kids might already know this, but I am very happy that they've added this feature as i used to turn the backlight off altogether to save battery, which was a pain if you used it at night, but now I can have it on dim and battey life is the same but i can actually see the screen!
However, I can't seem to get album art to show up on the iPod using iTunes 7 so i reverted back to 6.
