My very first iPod had FW (I even bought > a FW card for my machine) but the later ones don't. ---- they sort of did - their latest version of firmware on my 5th Gen won't let me use Firewire for anything but charging. I gathered since he said he was able to move files onto his iPod via Firewire, that his iPod hasn't reached that stage yet (where only USB can be used to move files). It sort of sucks because the firewire is faster than USB.
