Wrapping Up
As you can see, the iPod can easily be extended by Outlook. Stay tuned to sites such as iPodHacks to find juicy new tools and solutions for your iPod. One drawback: All the hacks I've seen show ways in which you can put data onto your iPod, structuring the data to the specific formats that the iPod demands. What you can't do is place a program onto the iPod, such as a new game. I'd love to see a software developer kit that demonstrates how the iPod's operating system can be extended. Then we could really create some great hacks for the iPodbetter games, custom applications, and real productivity tools.
