On a related note, I have recently had occasion to stay in two different hotels. One was the Tribeca Grand in New York City, and the other was the Hyatt Regency in Irvine, California. Both rooms had iPod-compatible music systems. I just docked the iPod and played my own tunes. In the case of the Tribeca Grand, the hotel offered loaner iPods, stocked with tunes, for guests who didn't have one with them. I'm sure that this has become common, if not almost a requirement, in upscale hotels. And it is clear evidence of the ubiquity and overwhelming market acceptance of the iPod. It's practically an institution at this point. To complement that point, Allen, we have been staying at The Mercer Hotel in SOHO in NYC this week. They have the same arrangement for Ipods. I don't know about a loaner system but our party has two rooms, each of which has an Ipod compatible music system. I carried all the equipment to connect it to a promised CD player in the room via cables in the back. No need. Just pop it in the player, turn it on, and you are off.
