iPods can handle CD-quality audio? I have been under the impression that iPods operate with compressed audio, like MP3s.

The iPod can play back both compressed (MP3) and uncompressed (AIFF, WAV) audio. The next generation of iPod will likely play back AAC (MP4-audio) as well.


I was also under the impression that the iPod used battery-backed RAM for storage, rather than a hard drive. Am I wrong about that, too? You own one, so I imagine you know about what you speak.

No, the iPod has always been hard-drive based. In fact, it can be used just like a regular portable FireWire HD, and you can use it to store any kind of data you wish.
