That is tempting.  I'd definitely jump if it did video.

Apple needs to release higher capacity iPods soon.  NEEDS.

You might be able to make that happen with Rockbox. Especially since it's the Zune before rebranding, and the Zune plays video!

I think this is a different model than whatever the Zunes are.  Zunes only have 30 gigs.  But I shall investigate this Rockbox.

Yep, Rockbox works with it:

Gigabeat F series:

As of April 2007, Rockbox now includes video-support for MPEG playback through the included work-in-progress mpegplayer plugin. [2] The mpegplayer plugin supports MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video streams with MPEG audio (layer II/III) multiplexed into .mpg files with no hard limits on frame rate or bitrate. Files must be encoded at native screen resolution. Seeking is not yet implemented.
