I'm a self confessed nerd. I know databases. I design databases. I know what a relational table is and can write SQL queries. (Ok, I've proved my point.)
So I wasn't scared to buy the above product for $40 which, in theory, would allow me to transfer my Access database tables at work to my handheld device and work with the data on the go. (Always nice to know who is in the hoosegow at the drop of a hat.)
Over the last 24 hours I've spent the majority of time jacking with it, and only in the last hour got the dang to work. I can't imagine the number of people that threw up their hands trying to work with the thing.

One time at band camp...
Looks like you were into this?
Wait... You're a self-confessed "nerd" but a day or two ago you stated you didn't want a iPod Shuffle because you didn't want to be locked into iTunes. Well, any nerd would know you don't have to use iTunes to transfer MP3s onto an iPod. ephpod is one example of such a utility.
iTunes doesn't even "lock" you into anything in the first place. I use iTunes (and don't have an iPod) and have never purchased a track from the iTunes Store. My music library is all MP3s.
