    Question Reading text on Ipod. Need help.

    I downloaded an etext. Rather than print it out, i decided to put it on my ipod by enabling the device for disk use and dragging the text file into the notes folder.
    However, when I go to view the file, only part of the text shows up, not all of it. This upsets me; is there some sort of limit on the amount of text you can view, or am I doing something wrong?

    Someone give me their help if its not too much trouble.

    bull, x.

    its like 12 kb or somthing really stupid, i put the anarchist cookbook on mine, but divided it up into single text files, its really not all that practical, and i had the recent 30GB one too.

    If you want to be able to read other text file types and no limits, try using rockbox.

    What rockbox does is turns an iPod into a normal mp3 player (and so much more!) instead of using iTunes, you just drag+drop files and on the device you play them the same way (although you can also create a database so as to mimic the artist/album/genre style of a standard iPod.

    It also has a bunch of plugins for things like image viewing, text viewing, games, and emulators.
