For her birthday, all the siblings and Dad got together and bought Mom and iPod Nano this year.  She was quite surprised! :-)

While we were there, we setup her iTunes library and since I (naturally) had my linux box there, too, I wanted to see how well Amarok worked with the iPod.

Wow.

It's awesome to see how far Linux has progressed with multimedia lately.  Amarok picked up the Nano automatically.  No editing of text files.  No fiddling with settings.  It just worked.

Sweet.
