You can use FireWire with them, but you have to buy the cable separately.

Nope. You can't. I have a firewire that came with my 4G (back when they actually gave you the necessities when you bought it), and when I tried to plug it into my friend's video, it said it didn't support it.

...why doesn't apple support their own product?

WHAT? So you're saying the new ipods don't support firewire? do they only have USB ports?
WHY? firewire is faster isn't it? they're making it bigger but cutting the bandwidth, how insanely stupid is that, how long would it take to transfer 60gigs over USB?

edit: ok figured it out, at hi-speed USB can apparently go up to 480mbit/s (which is faster than firewire) which means 60gigs would take about 17minutes, not bad really, I didn't know hi-speed was 40 times as fast as regular USB. I need to just get a hi-speed USB port.

it looks like you can only use firewire if you go through a dock.

Why use firewire anyway? Firewire is the past AND it's slower than USB
